Nothing says Halloween “terrier” like a pup in a costume. Pier Village is hosting a Fall Festival and Pooch Parade to ring in Halloween with a full day of festivities. Puppies are encouraged to come in their cutest and most creative costumes for the puppy costume contest along the ocean front boardwalk.

Although our four-legged friends will steal the show, there will also be activities for owners, including arts & crafts, a kid costume contest, bouncy rides, shopping and much more.

Activities include:

•Puppy costume contest + parade along the oceanfront boardwalk

•Kids costume contest + parade

•Arts & crafts, bouncy rides, DJ, costume characters on the boardwalk, Fresh Farmers and Makers Market, and food & drink specials offered at the variety of oceanfront restaurants.

•The shops along the pier offer trick & treating, as well as a special trick or treat experience in Bungalow hotel – perfect for families and groups of friends who want to take advantage of an easy weekend getaway from NYC or Philadelphia
