Knoxville Beggars night will take place on Thursday, October 31st and is now two weeks away.

The annual celebration involving dressing up and trick or treating will be held from 6:00-8:00 pm, which is the same as last year. Some helpful reminders for Beggars Night, according to the Knoxville Police Department, are to make sure costumes are fire resistant, check that a costume doesn’t pose a tripping hazard, and try to choose a light colored costume to make sure children are visible to motorists. If the costume is dark, consider adding reflective tape, and using glow sticks or flashlights.
