MADISON — Get ready, Madison – the witches are back.
Next month, local “witches” will take flight on bicycles, golf carts, and on foot as they stroll through downtown Madison for the annual Madison Witches Ride.
The family-friendly Halloween tradition fills the streets with spooky fun as candy is tossed to eager children lining the route.
This year’s ride will travel along Garner Street, behind the Madison City Schools Stadium, offering prime viewing for families and candy catchers.
Organized by Madison Visionary Partners (MVP), the Witches Ride is more than just a whimsical community celebration – it’s an event with heart.
All proceeds will benefit the Madison Miracle League, a transformative project to build a fully inclusive Miracle League field at Palmer Park, where children of all abilities can experience the joy of baseball in a safe, accessible environment.
Following the ride, the celebration continues with a Community Block Party at Home Place Park (100 Shorter Street). There will be children’s activities, food trucks, and a DJ spinning spooky tunes.
