Bell Gardens: October 26 Council Meeting, October 31 Halloween Carnival and Other Upcoming City Events

BELL GARDENS, Los Angeles County — October 25, 2026. Bell Gardens residents have several public meetings and family activities on the city calendar this week, including a City Council meeting Monday, October 26, at 6 p.m. and a Halloween Carnival and Día de Muertos event Saturday, October 31, from 5 to 9 p.m. The dates come from the City of Bell Gardens’ official event list. Because city calendars can change, confirm the final details directly with the city before attending.

October 26: City Council meeting

The scheduled meeting is a joint meeting of the City Council and the Successor Agency to the Community Development Commission at 6 p.m. Monday, October 26. Regular council meetings take place in the City Hall Council Chambers, 7100 Garfield Avenue. The city’s Council meeting information page explains that the public may attend in person and describes official meeting broadcasts. The 2026 meeting schedule likewise identifies October 26 as a regular meeting date.

The calendar listing reviewed for this article does not include the October 26 agenda packet. This report therefore does not claim that any specific contract, rezoning request or spending proposal will be considered, much less approved. Residents should use the city’s official council document center to read the final agenda and confirm public-comment procedures before the meeting.

October 31: Halloween Carnival and Día de Muertos

The city schedules its Halloween Carnival and Día de Muertos for 5 to 9 p.m. Saturday, October 31, at Veterans Park, 6662 Loveland Street, Bell Gardens, CA 90201. The individual city event page confirms the time and location. The published calendar entry does not specify admission prices, individual activities or parking restrictions; families should check for an updated program rather than assume a particular attraction is available.

Additional dates to keep in mind

Bell Gardens also lists a Resident Art and Yard Sale on Friday, October 30, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and its calendar advertises a Family Fishing Derby for Saturday, November 7, from 8 a.m. to noon. Addresses, registration rules and availability for those events should be confirmed on the relevant city event page. The city’s regular public information office can be reached through bellgardens.org or City Hall at (562) 806-7700.
