President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump welcomed families to the White House on Thursday evening for the 2025 Halloween celebration, handing out full-size candy bars to excited trick-or-treaters.
The First Lady recently unveiled her elegant fall-themed decorations, featuring pumpkins, leaves, and warm seasonal tones adorning the White House grounds. The festive atmosphere came just hours after President Trump returned from a successful five-day trip to Asia.

Dressed in a dark suit and his signature red “Make America Great Again” hat, President Trump greeted children and parents gathered along the North Portico. First Lady Melania looked stylish in a brown trench coat accented with orange leather as the couple smiled, chatted, and handed out candy to the long line of guests.

At one point, President Trump playfully balanced a candy bar on a child’s head — a lighthearted move reminiscent of a similar moment from a previous Halloween celebration.
The event marked another family-friendly tradition at the Trump White House, with cheerful decorations, happy families, and the President and First Lady leading the festivities with their signature charm.
