Halloween in New York is for dogs, too: At Barktoberfest on Pier 57, their costumes take center stage.
What to expect
At DOWNTOWN Magazine’s annual Barktoberfest, dressed-up dogs compete in a costume contest. Past entries have included little New York taxis and groups of dogs in matching family costumes. You can also come along just to watch.
The event takes place outdoors in the Rooftop Park on Pier 57. Alongside the contest, there are treats for the dogs, including pup cups from Bird & Branch.
Good to know
- Admission is free. Registration is required.
- The event is on the rooftop, so allow time to make your way upstairs.
