With October coming up fast, I was curious if there are any big events for Halloween in Sendai? Specifically, party-goers going around the city in costumes, clubs and bars hosting Halloween themed nights, and any other events for 20-30 year olds looking to dress up. I live in Aomori prefecture so I would rather not go all the way to Tokyo just for one weekend. But if Tokyo is the best option for Halloween festivities so be it.

There are many people in costume in Shibuya, Namba, and probably Sakae, however, you don’t see that many people wearing Halloween costume in Sendai.
Maybe the local ALT group is throwing an event. My prefectural group rented out a whole bar and threw an awesome Halloween party last year. Most definitely got stared at going to McDonalds afterwards though.
There are some gaijin bars and/or foreigner groups that do Halloween events, but nothing like Shibuya. Just flying to tokyo would probably be a better option.
When I lived in Sendai back in 2016-18, I saw a lot of people walking around the arcade on Halloween night wearing costumes.
TIL 3 months before is ‘coming up fast’
Tokyo absolutely the best option! Maybe get a hotel
