Arts in the Dark

This annual arts-centric Halloween parade returns to State Street to cap off the City of Chicago's “Halloweek” festivities with an evening of colorful, family-friendly flair. Watch as participants from major cultural organizations, inspiring youth programs and aspiring artists in every field march down the downtown thoroughfare and prepare for a spectacle. Plus, Arts in the Park is bringing back its “Upside Down” parade in Washington Park—where attendees can walk through a route thronged by costumed performers and puppeteers.
