The Portsmouth Halloween Parade is a 501(c)3 grassroots, all-inclusive celebration of community, creativity, and free expression that walks, stalks, dances, trumpets, and drums its way through downtown Portsmouth each year on October 31st at 7 pm.
Everyone is invited to dress up, gather at Peirce Island, and march. No sign-up is required.
The Parade is independently organized – it is not a City-sponsored event. It is entirely funded and put on by the community, which rallies many benefits to raise funds to cover expenses of insurance, permits, and police detail. Hundreds march in costume, thousands cheer from the sidelines, it’s always a spectacle from either side of the curb.
