Whether you want to celebrate Halloween at a bar or club, do something
festive, or act like you're a kid again, these Halloween Events in
NYC will give you some great ideas on how to spend your 2009
Halloween day and night.
The 36th New York Village Halloween Parade 2009
The annual New York City Village Halloween Parade is one of the most
recognized
Halloween Events in NYC and will surely get you in the
Halloween spirit, as it is the largest public Halloween celebration in the
United States. Join the more than 2 million people that come to downtown
Manhattan to attend the parade each year. It is always on Halloween night and
begins at 7:00 p.m. If you wish to join the more than 60,000 costumed marchers
then all you have to do is arrive in costume at 6th Avenue South of Spring
Street sometime between 6:30 p.m. and 800 p.m. If you're thinking about
participating in the parade but don't have time to put a costume together,
visit Halloween-nyc.com to see about carrying a puppet or volunteering. You
may also visit

directions to the parade, the parade route, and other information.

Halloween 2009 Pub Crawl
For a Halloween celebration that is not quite as formal as the above mentioned
venues, but still guaranteed to be a great time, consider the
Halloween 2009 Pub Crawl. You will have the chance to visit
over 100 bars in 3 days (Oct 30-Nov.1), or you can just choose one day of
pubcrawling. Either way, don't miss what the Guinness Book of Records calls
the largest Pubcrawl in the world!
Halloween Scavenger Hunts in New York
If you want to experience a Halloween event reminiscent of your childhood
Halloween adventures then be sure to check out the variety of scavenger hunts
that are taking place all over Manhattan. Some scavenger hunts include The
Secrets of Central Park, The Ghosts of Greenwich Village Scavenger Hunt, The
Sex and the Village Scavenger Hunt (which takes you to various NYC locations
where the Sex and the City series was filmed), The Murder at the Museum of
Natural History Scavenger Hunt, and The Haunted Times Square Scavenger Hunt.
Please be aware that not all of these scavenger hunts take place on
Halloween day. Some of them start several weeks before
Halloween and run through December. Also, please keep in mind that advanced
purchase of tickets is required for most of these scavenger hunts.
