Catch Hundreds Of Jack O’Lanterns Floating Along The Harlem Meer At Central Park’s Annual Halloween Celebration
For a spooky spectacle like none other, venture to Central Park’s annual Pumpkin Flotilla along the Harlem Meer. Every year, **Halloween** enthusiasts sculpt a Jack O’Lantern to perfection before placing it atop of a floating procession along the water. The glowing pumpkin fleet is one of NYC’s most Instagrammable celebrations, joining the ranks of the **Tompkins Square Park Dog Parade** and the Village Halloween Parade . The family-friendly event is free — though the park asks you to sign up online — and includes music, crafts, and more. 🗓️ Thursday, October 30th 📍 Charles A.
