South Florida's biggest gay Halloween celebration. Every Halloween, Wilton Drive closes to traffic and turns into a massive open-air costume party — tens of thousands in head-to-toe looks, drag and live entertainment on the main stage, and every bar on the Drive throwing its own party at once. Ticketed; proceeds benefit The Pride Center at Equality Park.
