Harajuku-Omotesando Hello Halloween Pumpkin Parade

The Hello Halloween Pumpkin Parade, an annual event in which around 3,000 children under twelve dress up to form a parade that spans the 700m long zelkova-tree-lined section of Omotesando, takes place for the 36th time this year. In addition to the parade itself, there will be a special Okashi Rally Map to highlight the participating shops in the Omotesando/Harajuku area that will be giving away okashi (sweets) to children. Finally, many cafés and restaurants will be presenting special Halloween-themed menus throughout the month of October (full list TBC).
