New York City’s 53rd Annual

VILLAGE HALLOWEEN PARADE

Saturday, October 31, 2026 at 7 pm | Presented LIVE on Spectrum News NY1 at 8 pm

The nation’s most wildly creative public participatory event in the greatest city in the world!

Costume Contest

How Do I Join the Costume Contest?

JUST SHOW UP! If you are IN the Parade, you are IN the contest! Our secret scouts will scour the parade and hand contact cards to those we deem to have the best costumes. Winners will be chosen from those who contact us.

We know it is next to impossible to select the “best costume”—there are just too many great ones! But, choose we must. In the past we have chosen Mario Roca for “The Stove” and Serra Hirsch, “The Claw”. This year could be yours to win! So, come out in style!
