Lincoln Road's lively Halloween costume parade and celebration is possibly the most well known event for the holiday in South Florida. The event is appropriate for the entire family during the earlier hours of the evening, but as the night goes on it's clearly marketed towards adults. Guests can walk around Lincoln Road to show off their Halloween makeup and costumes or stop in a number of establishments for drinks and dancing. Visitors seeking more low-key participation may make advance dinner reservations at a Lincoln Road restaurant with patio dining for the best people watching and views without getting caught up in the crowd.
