New York's Village Halloween Parade Returns in 2025 with 'Potluck' Theme
The Village Halloween Parade, a New York City tradition since 1973, is set to return on Friday, October 31, 2025. Organized by the non-profit Village Halloween Parade, Inc., this year's event will celebrate the theme 'Potluck', fostering community, creativity, and connection. The parade is expected to attract over 80,000 participants and 2 million spectators.
The parade will commence at 7 pm, starting at Canal Street and Sixth Avenue, and conclude at 15th Street, with the most crowded viewing areas between Bleecker Street and 14th Street. Spectators can watch the spectacle live on NY1 from 8 pm to 9:30 pm. Participants are encouraged to line up in costume at the starting point between 6:30 pm and 9 pm, as only those in costume can march in the parade.
The Village Halloween Parade began as a small neighborhood walk led by Greenwich Village mask-maker Ralph Lee. Over the decades, it has grown to become the largest Halloween parade in the world. For those attending, the subway is the recommended mode of transportation, with service changes and rerouted buses expected due to the event.
The Village Halloween Parade, themed 'Potluck' for 2025, promises a festive celebration of community and creativity. Mark your calendars for Friday, October 31, 2025, and join the millions expected to participate or watch this iconic New York City event.
