Costumed Canines Delight Crowds at NYC Halloween Dog Parade

The 34th annual Tompkins Square Halloween Dog Parade attracts thousands to the East Village, showcasing creative canine costumes.

The event took place on October 19, 2024, along Avenue A in New York City's East Village.
Thousands of spectators gathered to see dogs dressed in elaborate costumes, including outfits inspired by 'Grease' and 'The Wizard of Oz.'
The parade, originally started to support the Tompkins Square Park dog run, is now a beloved annual tradition.
Joseph Borduin, the event organizer since 2020, announced this would be his final year due to the growing complexity of managing the parade.
The parade featured a variety of creative costumes, with some dogs receiving prizes for their unique attire.
