New York' City’s Greenwich Village Halloween Parade is an annual holiday parade and street pageant run every Halloween (October 31) for 40 years. It is the largest, and perhaps weirdest, Halloween celebration in the US and probably the world. More than a mile long, two million spectators enjoy at least fifty thousand costumed participants, dancers, artists, circus performers, floats with live bands, and a television audience of one hundred million worldwide.
Very ‘avant garde’ (some might say alternative) it began as a parade primarily for NYC gay community and the event remains open to anyone in a costume who wishes to march. It is an event everyone should see at least once.
