The hosts of Today always have so much fun celebrating Halloween each year! Jenna Bush Hager, Al Roker, Craig Melvin and more of the show’s anchors have rocked some incredible costumes over the years on the NBC series.

Viewers have gotten to see the playful sides of their favorite talk show personalities through their out-of-the-box ideas. For Halloween in 2021, the hosts went with a “Football Fright in America” theme for their costumes. Hoda Kotb, Savannah Guthrie and the rest of the gang wore their best Super Bowl and NFL-inspired ensembles.

The year prior, the group channeled their favorite Broadway stars on Halloween. The colorful cast of characters included Wicked’s Elphaba and Glinda, and King George III and Alexander Hamilton of the smash hit Hamilton. It’s so hard for us to pick our favorite costumes of the bunch, but 2024’s “VHS Rewind” theme was awesome!
