HALLOWEEN PARADE & CARNIVAL:  Put on your Halloween costumes and meet us at the Weatherdance Fountain on the Ped Mall in Downtown Iowa City on Friday, Oct. 23 for the annual Halloween Parade and Carnival.

The parade will kick off at 6:15 p.m. when costumed revelers head to the Robert A. Lee Recreation Center at 220 S. Gilbert Street for the Halloween Carnival. Join us from 6:30 to 8 p.m. for an ooky night in the Haunted Hallway, as well as carnival-style games, crafts, prizes, tricks, treats, a glow stick dance party, special visitors, and other Halloween fun.

All ages and abilities are welcome. Children must be accompanied by an adult. In case of inclement weather, the parade will be canceled, but the carnival will still be held. There's no participation fee for either event!
