About this happenin

Twenty-two blocks of Central Avenue close to traffic for Halloween on Central, a costumed street party through St. Petersburg's Grand Central and EDGE districts on a late-October Sunday afternoon. The Grand Central District Association stages it, and the route splits into themed stretches: the EDGE District's Kooky Spooky end from 8th to 16th Street, the Voodoo Vendor Village from 16th to 21st, a women-owned Gal-o-ween block, the oddities vendors of SpookEasy Hallow, and FrankenPride with St Pete Pride. Live music and local makers fill the gaps, along with a lot of candy. It runs noon to 5pm. Wear a costume and bring a bag. The whole stretch is car-free, so pick an end and walk; the EDGE District points drivers to the Central Parking Garage at 1388 1st Avenue North, and organizers name PSTA's SunRunner as the official ride in. The Boo-levard of Play family zone has kid activities and a costume contest, and its sensory area offers non-edible treats and a quiet break.
