LIVE from NYPL: Rooftop Happy Hour: Halloween Edition with Tim Gunn
The annual Halloween costume parade with Tim Gunn returns for the first time in three years! Join us for it on the SNFL terrace, plus drinks, crafts, and more.
Ring in the spooky season at NYPL. Show us your best literary look—inspired by a book, poem, character, or writer. Our judges—fashion mentor Tim Gunn and NYPL librarians—are experts in fashion and literature. Come prepared! They’ll decide who wears it best. With music by DJ Carol C.
Registered attendees may us at any point between 5:30-7:30 PM. The costume parade will begin at around 6:15 PM.
This event is now fully registered. Please note that for free events, we overbook to ensure a full house. Priority will be given to those who have registered in advance, but registration does not guarantee admission. A standby line will form prior to the event for first-come-first served admission, if space allows.
