Claiming it’s the largest Halloween street party in the world, West Hollywood, California is preparing for its 19th Annual Halloween Costume Carnaval.
Join in the festivities as close to half a million people take to the street ““ Santa Monica Boulevard in this case ““ in crazy, eccentric costumes. While some might argue that some West Hollywood residents always look like they are in costume, Carnaval is the perfect excuse for people of all ages and diversity to come out and par-tee!
The highlights of the event are, of course, the Halloween Costume Contest and the crowning of the Honorary “Queen of the Carnaval.” Last year’s “Queen” was Ryan Seacrest.
Also on tap: live entertainment, food vendors, and special events and contests. This Carnival is for families, and child activities are scheduled as well.
I personally want to see the “drag” races. Use your imagination, folks, this is West Hollywood after all.
Carnaval is held on Halloween Night (October 31st), 6 pm-midnight.
