2025 Riverside Park Pup Halloween Parade & Costume Contest Entry

Join us for a howling fun time!
Riverside Park Conservancy is so excited to bring back our second annual Riverside Park Pup Halloween Parade, on Saturday, October 18th (raindate, October 25th) from 11:30 AM to 3:30 PM. The parade route this year will meet at Dinosaur Playground on 96th Street and end at Ellington's Cafe at 105th Street with our costume contest. Dress your pups in their most creative costumes as we parade through the park, spreading Halloween cheer and cuteness overload! Whether your dog is a tiny pumpkin or a fierce superhero, all breeds, sizes, and spooky styles are welcome.

To walk in the Parade and enter the costume contest, community members should register using the form below! Participants should register by October 15th.
