Halloween Party Ideas in India
Halloween is now a big party night in Bengaluru, Mumbai, Delhi NCR, Pune and Hyderabad, mostly at clubs, cafés, colleges and house parties. In 2026 it falls on a Saturday, so most events run on Friday 30 and Saturday 31 October.
You do not need to buy a costume. Easy DIY ideas that work with what is at home: a ghost from an old white bedsheet, a vampire with a black shirt and red lipstick, a witch with a black dupatta and a paper hat, or a skeleton drawn on a black T-shirt with white fabric paint. Pumpkins are hard to find in some cities, so many people carve a large orange or use paper lanterns instead.
