Rialto Cancels October 27 Council Meeting; Halloween Hi-Jinks Set for October 31

RIALTO, San Bernardino County — October 25, 2026. Residents following this week’s public events in Rialto should note two important items on the city’s official calendar: the Tuesday, October 27 City Council meeting is marked canceled, while the city’s Halloween Hi-Jinks celebration is scheduled for Saturday, October 31, from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. at the Rialto Civic Center.

October 27 Council meeting: Canceled

The official City of Rialto homepage labels the October 27 City Council meeting “[Cancelled]”. An earlier recurring calendar may still show a meeting time, but the cancellation notice takes precedence. Residents should check the latest agenda center or City Clerk notices for a replacement session or rescheduled public hearing, rather than traveling based on the old schedule. Cancellation is not evidence that any pending legislation was approved.

October 31: Halloween Hi-Jinks

The city’s Halloween Hi-Jinks 2026 announcement says that the event at Rialto Civic Center will include free trick-or-treating, food vendors, costume contests, scare mazes and additional attractions. The city advertises $5 advance wristbands for some attractions if purchased before October 31. Do not assume that free trick-or-treating means every ride or other activity is free; review the specific wristband conditions with the organizer.

Other events this week

Rialto’s October city events calendar lists the Certified Farmers’ Market Wednesday, October 28, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and a Senior Halloween Dance on Thursday, October 29, from 3 to 6 p.m. Residents interested in either should consult the individual listing for address, admission and any required registration. Events may change because of weather or staffing.

How to stay informed

The city’s online calendar distinguishes municipal meetings from parks and recreation events and allows readers to review current notices. Residents seeking information about city decisions can use the official Rialto government site, while people attending the Halloween celebration should confirm wristband availability and parking before leaving home.
