The 2022, 2024, and 2024 Great Hauntway Halloween events at Ocean Beach Park (Great Highway) were a wild success. The highway-turned-park, sandwiched between the Ocean Beach sand dunes and the Outer Sunset neighborhood of San Francisco was transformed into a mile-and-a-half of Halloween costumes and trick-or-treat booths and decked-out families.
I always hope that the Popup Photo Studio will be a fun activity for families and a unique way to document as many costume-clad participants as I possibly can. But I’m always blown away by the sheer number of people who attend – literally hundreds of groups stream in and out of the Popup Studio for three straight hours. Every year I lose my voice and go home with cheeks tired from laughing and smiling.
The Great Highway is currently a pedestrian park on weekends. The 2024 Great Hauntway was a reminder of what an incredible & safe space we have bordering San Francisco to the west. To learn how to support the creation of a permanent oceanfront park, please visit Ocean Beach Park and vote YES ON K!
