Halloween on wheels: the Wednesday Night Skate’s costume outing brings dressed-up skaters together for an evening through New York’s streets.
What to expect
The Halloween outing is associated with the end of the regular Wednesday Night Skate season. Instead of staying at a rink, the group skates through the city in costume.
The usual meeting point is the steps on the south side of Union Square Park. Check the organizer’s announcement for the Halloween meetup and route before making plans.
Good to know
- You should be confident skating and braking on city streets.
- Choose a costume that leaves your vision and movement clear; a helmet and protective gear are sensible.
- Check the organizer’s latest weather and route updates before setting off.
- Meet at the South side of Union Square (by the steps).
