Season of the Bear - 29th Annual Extravaganza

Annual Extravaganza

BareBones' premiere event is its Annual Halloween Extravaganza—an outdoor spectacle of giant puppets, fire, aerialists, and more! It's an autumn ritual that captures the spirit of the season and is a must-see Minnesota tradition.

BareBones relies heavily on community members to bring its Annual Extravaganza to life and keep the organization running the rest of the year! Make puppets, learn to stilt, help with marketing or fundraising, or be on staff!

Keep the Magic Going!
