Dress up your pet for Barktoberfest's costume contest—and you could win some pretty epic prizes. DOWNTOWN Magazine is hosting this adorable dog costume contest on Pier 57's nearly two-acre Rooftop Park on Saturday, October 25.
Here are examples of the prizes you can win: a Nobu Restaurant dinner for two, a Four Seasons Hotel New York Downtown one-night stay with breakfast in bed, a pet photography package with Josh Owens, or a Classic Harbor Line Fall Foliage Cruise for two.
Even if you don't have a pet, all are invited to watch and can enjoy the festivities amongst spectacular views of the Hudson River and Lower Manhattan (costumes for humans are encouraged, too!). This year’s event will showcsae Muddy Paws Rescue, a local foster-based dog rescue organization.
Check in is at 11am and the show begins at 12pm. The event is free, but registration is required to participate.
