Ragamuffin Parade and Halloween Costume Contest to Draw Hundreds to Hoboken

Every year, ghouls, goblins, and ghosts of every age swarm the Mile Sqaure City to celebrate Halloween, and tomorrow will be no exception. Some of the many haunted happenings in Hoboken include the Ragamuffin Parade, a costume contest at the Little League Field, and the Crawl-o-ween pub crawl through the city.

Ragamuffin Parade and Costume Contest

Grab a costume and join trick-or-treaters of all ages on Washington Street for one of the best Halloween Parades around town. Parade participants must meet on Washington and 13th Streets at 3:15 p.m. to march in the parade.

The Ragamuffin Parade will feature live music, wacky Halloween-themed floats, and hundreds of costume-clad families and friends.

A Halloween costume contest will take place directly after the parade at The Little League Field, located at 5th Street and River Terrace. Prizes will be awarded in five age categories. The contest will be hosted by local MC, Polka Dot.
