Easy To Pack Halloween Costumes

When you travel over Halloween, you might also be doing holiday activities where you'll need a costume. We have often gone to a Disney park during Halloween season and have packed costumes, but still only took a carry-on. 

Here are 10 easy, but fun, costumes to bring with you, that will still enable you to pack light.

A game show contestant

You basically only need a plain colored shirt for this, and then a name tag and points card (or dollar guess), both of which are flat and easy to pack. 

Salt & Pepper (or other spices, if there's a group of you)

I love this. Everyone has a black or white t-shirt in their closet. You can do an iron-on S and P, or make large decals that you can stick on for your event and then remove when it's over. That way you can wear it during the whole trip, instead of just the one time.

An Olympic breakdancer

Can you breakdance? Don't worry. There's speculation that that one Australian Olympian couldn't either. While a bit more elaborate of an outfit, you could easily wear parts of this as loungewear on your trip.

Tennis or Pickleball player

You're probably already packing some of this outfit. You may just need to add a tennis skirt/short and a visor. Maybe you travel with your own pickleball racket, which would make this incredibly easy. 

Nepo Baby

I kind of love the simplicity of this one that's still creative. Pair some jeans with a plain tee that says Nepo Baby, get yourself a fake award to carry around, and prepare your acceptance speech. 

A milkshake (and soda jerk)

Perfect solo costume. Perfect couple's costumes. Perfect group costume. If these headbands are too big for you to travel with, consider doing a cardboard cutout version that you color and attach to a headband yourself or purchase these smaller versions. Here's an outfit for the soda jerk.

Pantone colors

Wear monochromatic outfits and attach a white Pantone label or border. Bonus points if you can find, and add, the exact color and number code.

Life handing out lemons

Looking for a funny costume that makes people think? Wear a yellow shirt or dress, put a nametag on that says Life and pick up some lemons from the local grocery store that you can carry around in a string bag and hand out to people, or at least let people see them. 

A Bachelor contestant

Wear whatever dress you bring with you and dress it up with some jewelry, make a chyron board with your stats and carry a rose. Boom! Go one step further and mess up your makeup and be a booted contestant from the show.

Witch

This is always an easy and classic costume. You just need a black outfit and a hat. It can be as simple as you want. Add some accessories that are easy to pack and brew up some magic.
