Good morning, this is your Bend Local Frequency for Monday, October 27. The Halloween spirit is already alive across Bend, with events lighting up neighborhoods and drawing families out for autumn fun. Yesterday evening Bend Nazarene Church hosted Light Up Halloween, a community celebration that packed in trunk or treating, food trucks, bounce houses, and even a live reggae band. If you missed it, don’t worry; the festive scene continues throughout the week, with Halloween just days away. Locals can look forward to McMenamins Halloween Bash on Thursday, featuring tunes from Dad Bods Band and Fractal, and for those up early on Halloween, Bend Burlesque Co. presents Urban Legends for a uniquely theatrical fright.
Over at Dogwood at the Pine Shed, Bend’s nightlife is in full swing. Tonight, there’s no shortage of good times with live DJs setting the mood for your Monday. If you fancy yourself a performer, OKAY Karaoke keeps the mic hot for anyone brave enough to sing their heart out. Tuesday’s Clocked Out gathering gives the city’s service industry folks a chance to relax with all-day happy hour specials. Meanwhile, Thursday brings the weekly Let’s Have a Kiki night, creating a vibrant space to celebrate Bend’s 2SLGBTQIA+ community. And as the weekend nears, anticipation is building for Friday’s Cliché Twink or Treat annual Halloween party at Dogwood. Costumes, music, and a festive crowd are guaranteed for a night to remember.
If you’re planning weekend outings, mark November 2 on your calendar. The Bend Golf Club is celebrating 100 years with its 8th Annual Holiday Bazaar, featuring 40 local vendors offering handcrafted goods and seasonal décor. Admission is free, so head over to the club for early holiday shopping and a dose of community tradition. For those with a taste for local history, the Deschutes Historical Museum’s annual Chili Feed and Raffle kicks off November 7 and 8, helping fund year-round programs and exhibits. Admission to the museum is free during the event, and hearty chili will help keep the cold at bay.
On the roads, if you’re traveling near Warm Springs, be aware that US26 has reopened after a tanker truck rollover closed the highway for cleanup. If you have errands or adventures near that area, normal routes should be available again this morning.
And for music fans, this week brings several live shows to downtown venues like Midtown Ballroom and Volcanic Theatre Pub. Local favorites and touring acts are stopping by, so check the Bend Ticket platform for listings and grab seats while you can. Whether it’s bluegrass, hip-hop, or indie rock, there’s something for every ear in town.
That wraps up today’s local roundup. Wherever you are in Bend, there’s no shortage of ways to connect, celebrate, and enjoy the week. This has been Bend Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
