When the weekend rolls around, we want to get outside and enjoy the beautiful fall weather that New Jersey offers. Luckily, fall in New Jersey offers lots of fun activities, festivals, events and fairs for families to enjoy throughout October and November.

Fun New Jersey Events through 11/9

Here are some of our favorite upcoming events:

Events happening October 31st – Nov 9th:

1) Hoboken’s annual Ragamuffin Parade starts at 3:45 on Halloween! Before you head out for trick-or-treating with your little ones, join over one thousand local Hoboken residents for this long-standing tradition at the Little League Field on 5th & Hudson Street. The parade concludes with a costume contest awarding prizes in six different categories. With fun costumes, live music and floats, the Ragamuffin Parade is a must-see and do!

2) New Jersey City University in Jersey City will turn into a dance party on Halloween night thanks to Little Club Heads! Little Club Heads is changing the way families spend time together with their dance party events throughout New York and New Jersey. From 6-9pm, children between the ages of 1-12 along with their families can get down at the Little Club Heads Halloween Costume Party.
