Register For Luna Park’s Halloween Dog Parade & Costume Contest

Halloween is not just for humans.

A parade of pooches will hit the catwalk at Luna Park’s annual Dog Parade and Costume Contest (1000 Surf Avenue) on Sunday, October 11, from 2pm to 4 pm. Check-in and the parade will begin in the Scream Zone. The contest will take place at the main park on the stage.

A distinguished panel of judges — including actress Kathryn Erbe from Law and Order — will select the winning pooches in several categories including: Audience Choice, Cutest, Mr./Miss Congeniality, Most Original, and Best of Show.

The grand prize-winning canine will receive a six month subscription to Bark Box, while its owner will receive four unlimited ride wristbands for Luna Park. Runners up for Cutest, Mr./ Miss Congeniality, Most Original and Audience Choice will receive a gift basket sponsored by TruFoods and two unlimited ride wristbands each.

Register online at Luna Park’s website or in-person in the park. The deadline for entries is October 10 at 8pm. Each dog must be on a leash accompanied by an adult.

In addition to the parade and contest, there will be a pet adoption program, sponsored by The North Shore Animal League.
