2025 Halloween Parade

Dive into the deep with the 15th annual Halloween Parade — the main event of the Fifolet Halloween Festival! Join thousands of costumed revelers as we make waves through downtown Baton Rouge with decorated floats, haunting beats, candy, and community cheer.

Watch the Greater Baton Rouge Food Bank truck lead the way like a true harvest parade, collecting nonperishable donations straight from the crowd. This event is free to attend and fun for all ages, with special zones:
--Party Zone near 3rd Street
--No-Scare Zone on Main Street
--Family Zone at 7th and Convention

Costumes are encouraged! Bring the family, dress up, and catch individually wrapped candy and Halloween trinkets (no beads). See the route map for full details.
