Northalsted Halloween Parade - The "Little Street of Horrors"
Sunday, October 31, 2010 (6:00pm-9:00pm)
The Halloween parade, now in its 14th year, goes bigger and bolder this holiday when a "Little Shop of Horrors" theme takes over Northalsted to create a "Little Street of Horrors"! Floats make their way into the parade for the first time and a scarecrow competition has shops competing for the top prize for decorating and design. The parade, which attracts thousands of attendees each year, kicks off at 6 p.m. at Belmont and Addison.
Dan and Steve will be making Candy Apples using apples from their Michigan orchard. For a Halloween Parade treat, HEARTY will be giving all our diners a 'Candy Apple to go' after their meal!
