The Best Ways to Celebrate Halloween in NYC

October has arrived in the Big Apple and no matter your age, scare affinity, or favorite fall festivities, NYC has the perfect Halloween event for you. I’ve rounded up some of the most haunted tours, wildest parades, and best places to dance in your costume all Halloweekend long- along with a heart-melting dog parade.

TAO Downtown

If you want to go to a party with friends this is a very good option. You just have to go with your costume and dance.

Village Halloween Parade

The iconic Greenwich Village parade on Halloween night is back with over 50,000 costumed New Yorkers planning to march, dance, and “float” the night away.

This year’s theme is “Freedom” and a section of the parade will feature The Brooklyn United Marching Band playing “Freedom!” by Jon Batiste along the route. New Yorkers who join in are encouraged to wear costumes representing the things that make them forget their troubles and feel carefree. The parade begins north of King Street and ends at 15th Street. The event is free and open to the public.
