Get your tails wagging because Ocean City’s Howl-O-Ween Parade is back on Saturday, October 25, 2025, starting at 3 p.m. on the Ocean City Boardwalk.
Hosted by the Humane Society of Ocean City, this adorable event invites pets (and their people!) to dress up and strut their stuff in a festive costume parade. Expect prizes, treats, and tail-wagging fun for all ages. Whether you’re marching or spectating, it’s a must-see Halloween tradition at the Jersey Shore.
Parade begins at 3 p.m.
Leashed dogs are welcome on the Boardwalk from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, October 25, and from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sunday, October 26.
