Selma Gets a Fall-O-Ween Celebration

Hudson’s Fall-O-Ween Fest is bringing a full day of fall shopping, food, Halloween fun and a costume contest for animals to Selma on Saturday, October 17, 2026.

When and Where

The event is scheduled from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 2332 Thanksgiving Fire Road, Selma, NC 27576. Families can stop by during the day for seasonal activities, browse merchandise, and enjoy food from Parker’s BBQ and JoCo Fizz, both listed on the event flyer. The advertised trunk-or-treat takes place later in the afternoon, from 2 to 4 p.m., so families can plan their Halloween outing.

Trunk-or-Treat from 2 to 4 p.m.

Trunk-or-treat is one of the event’s biggest family attractions. The two-hour afternoon window lets families combine the Halloween activity with a morning or midday visit to the store. Families planning to participate may want to bring their own candy bags and check with the organizer about any additional instructions or changes.

An Animal Costume Contest

Pets and other animals get their own moment in the spotlight with an animal costume contest. According to the flyer, first prize is a Turtlebox speaker, second prize is a pair of XTRATUF boots, and third prize is a $75 gift card valid at all three locations. Whether your animal dresses as a pumpkin, a superhero or something entirely original, the contest adds a playful twist to the fall celebration.

The flyer does not specify judging time, entry rules or eligibility, so interested owners should contact Hudson’s before arriving with an animal. Keep animals safely supervised and comfortable around crowds and unfamiliar sounds.

Food, Fall Shopping and Special Deals

The event flyer names Parker’s BBQ and JoCo Fizz among the food and drink offerings. Visitors can also look for a bucket sale advertising 10 percent off everything that fits inside the bucket, subject to store terms. Other advertised promotions include deals on leaf blowers and chainsaws and 10 percent off gallons of paint.

Because the flyer does not spell out exclusions, quantities or the exact terms of every promotion, shoppers should confirm details at the store.

A Local Way to Spend a Fall Saturday

Fall festivals let neighbors connect, and this event pairs family-friendly Halloween activities with a stop at a local business. Visitors can come for the afternoon trunk-or-treat, bring an animal for the costume contest if permitted, or simply enjoy the food and browse the advertised specials. The schedule also allows time to visit other Selma-area businesses during the day.
