The Cranbrook Witches Market: Halloween Edition is back for its sixth magical market, set to take place at the Royal Alexandra Hall at the Cranbrook History Centre This enchanting event will be held over the weekend of Friday, October 3th, and Saturday, October 4th, 2025, celebrating the seasonal energy of Samhain/Halloween.

Samhain, pronounced “Sah-win” or “Sow-win,” is almost exactly halfway between the autumn equinox and the winter solstice. The name "Samhain" originates from an old Irish word meaning “summer’s end,” marking the onset of winter and the end of the harvest season. Also known as the Witches’ New Year, Samhain is a time when the veil between the worlds is thinnest, making it perfect for divination, honouring ancestors, and working with herbs and crystals associated with the season.

The Cranbrook Witches Market promises a celebration filled with unique vendors, talented readers, and the enchanting spirit of Samhain. Attendees can expect a market brimming with mystical items, insightful readings, and the festive ambiance of Halloween.

Mark your calendars and prepare for a spellbinding experience at the Cranbrook Witches Market: Halloween Edition. This is an event not to be missed for those looking to embrace the magic of the season.
