Photo by John Eng] There's nothing quite like a neighborhood Halloween parade in NYC. While older kids may want to venture out to the iconic [Village Halloween Parade]( on Sixth Avenue in Manhattan, it can be pretty scary—it's always insanely crowded and loud, and many of the costumes are risque, gory, or in poor taste. If your children aren't up for that big Hallow-baloo, there are plenty of smaller, kid-friendly NYC neighborhood Halloween parades in 2023 spread across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx, including the mega [Jackson Heights Halloween Parade]( the famed [Park Slope march]( and the [Bleecker Playground fest]( for little ones. Our list of 30+ top NYC Halloween parades even includes pet parades and costume contests that allow dogs to line up in fantastic outfits [at Carl Schurz Park]( [Fort Greene Park]( [Washington Square Park]( and more! Read on for the best 2023 Halloween parades in New York City for families to watch or march in. If you don't live in a great [trick-or-treating neighborhood]( these Halloween parades are a wonderful way to hunt for candy in another neighborhood.
