Join us for our 79th annual Halloween Parade on Friday, October 24th, at 7pm on Tyler Street! Floats, marchers, bands and more are wanted as the Pittsfield Halloween Parade seeks participants. This year’s parade theme is “Haunted Hometown Spooktacular” and participants are encouraged to base their float designs, decorations, and/or costumes around iconic, past Halloween parades that have occurred in Pittsfield since the mid-1940s. Schools, local businesses, organizations and community/civic groups are encouraged to participate in this Pittsfield tradition.
Every ‘unit’ will need to review the Halloween Parade Application Packet and complete all applicable forms. The application packet is available through the Parks & Recreation page on the city’s website under the Halloween tab (www.pittsfieldma.gov/590/Halloween). The deadline for completed forms is Friday, October 10th!
There will be one float seminar held on Thursday, September 25th, at 6pm in Room 203 of City Hall, 70 Allen Street, Pittsfield for those who are interested in or planning to have a float. If your organization or school would like to have a float in the parade, a representative must attend the seminar.
If you are a new participant in the parade, you are required to attend the new participant meeting which will be held on Monday, October 20th, at 6pm in Room 203 of City Hall.
For further information, interested groups may contact Jennifer VanBramer, Recreation & Special Events Coordinator, at 413-499-9371 or email [email protected].
