Old Town Toronto BIA & Toronto Dog Moms are teaming up for the Fur Ball, a Halloween dog costume contest and fashion show, and your dog is invited to strut their stuff on the stage.

Dress up your dog in their spookiest, silliest, or most stylish costume and sign up for FREE. Our judges will be on the lookout for the best of the best, with awesome prize packs up for grabs.

Plus, a curated selection of indie vendors will be on-site selling all things dog, so bring your wallet along with your walking shoes.

Mark your calendars, grab your dog’s costume, and come out for a day of fun, treats, and tail wags!

Help spread the word by sharing on Facebook.

Bring out your jack-o-lanterns to Berczy Park for the ultimate post-Halloween send-off. Let your creation glow with delight atop the park’s stage for all to see before bidding farewell to your pumpkin pal: to be composted with great reverence by the City of Toronto.

All jack-o-lanterns, and monsters, witches, ghouls and ghosts of all ages welcome.

 Let us know you are coming and share with others via our Facebook Event!
