Halloween. How to celebrate Halloween in the UK. Traditionally, Halloween is celebrated on October 31. On this day, the British gather in cheerful mummers and go to every house. Most of all, children are happy about this holiday, because for them it is a great opportunity to dress up in a suit and get sweets.
