About this event
Northalsted spends Halloween day on the street: a block party from late morning, then an evening parade along Halsted from Belmont, followed by one of the city's most competitive costume contests and an after party. Expect elaborate costumes, live local music and trick-or-treating in Chicago's historic LGBTQ+ neighbourhood.
