Photos from the 2024 Monster March Halloween Bar Crawl through Philadelphia

Halloween is that one time of year when adults get to ditch the everyday grind, throw on a wild costume for one incredible evening! And this year, we’re turning Cavanaugh's Riverdeck into a haunted party paradise with a costume contest that’s going BIG! Think your outfit can steal the show? Prove it at our costume contest! We’re handing out $500 in cash, a flatscreen HD TV, and more cool prizes for the best costumes at 9 PM. Go creepy, hilarious, or just plain over-the-top—it’s your time to shine. Plus, everyone who joins the costume contest walks away with some Cav’s Cash. That’s right, we’re paying you to look good!

If you’re just dying for a Halloween celebration with a twist, then you've wandered into the right creepy chronicle. We’ve found a series of hauntingly fabulous drag brunches lined up just in time for the season. With so many themes and performances, there's no end in sight on thrills, chills, and (probably some) spills. 

Halloween is creeping up on us like a black cat in a dark alley, and that means it’s time to get those costumes together for the top Philadelphia costume contests!

For those of you looking to not only dress to impress but also shake it 'til you break it, we've rounded up the hottest costume contests and parties that are really going to be a scream.

Hey, spooky souls of Philly! The ghostly season is upon us and it's time to lock down your plans for Halloween, 2024. If you thought last year was scary, prepare yourself because this October is rolling in with more chills, thrills, and dance spills than ever before.
