The season doesn't end at midnight on the 31st: Día de los Muertos celebrations run October 31 through November 2, harvest markets and fall festivals continue into mid-November, and some attractions run one final discounted weekend. Costume and decor clearance peaks November 1-2 for next-year planning. If October overflowed, the first November weekend is the graceful catch-up window.
Cash in small bills alongside your card, since some vendors are cash-only while others are card-only, plus a sturdy tote or backpack for purchases and a cooler in the car for anything perishable. Go early for selection or the last hour for deals. Walk the full market once before buying, note the two best stalls, then circle back and commit.
Big festivals fill official lots by late morning, so arrive early, use the event's posted satellite lots and shuttles rather than gambling on street parking, and drop a pin on your car the moment you park. Neighborhood streets near events often carry event-day restrictions that generate real tickets. Leaving 20 minutes before the closing act beats sitting in the exit crawl.
