The theme for this year’s parade is Fall Harvest. The Hellertown Halloween Parade is a judged parade with prizes awarded to individuals, groups and floats across several different categories, according to the theme.​

Sponsors are also being sought for the bands that will lead each of the six parade divisions in this year’s Halloween parade. The cost is $650 per sponsorship. Checks should be made payable to ā€œHellertown Halloween Paradeā€ and sent to the parade committee at 326 Main St., Hellertown, PA 18055.

ā€œWe will have a banner printed in front of the band showing your generosity,ā€ parade chairman and mayor David Heintzelman said in a news release about this year’s parade. ā€œWith your support and enthusiasm, the Hellertown Halloween Parade will be a success, as in the past.ā€

As has been the case in recent years, there will also be a post-parade after-party held in Hellertown’s Dimmick Park featuring live music, food and more. There is no rain date for the parade or after-party.
