Paws in the Park: Halloween Costume Contest and Party at the Deck in Clarence Square

POSTED ON October 27, 2025 BY Justine Smith

On Saturday, October 25, Toronto’s dog-friendly community gathered at Clarence Square Dog Park & The Deck for Paws in the Park: Halloween Costume Contest, presented by Toronto Dog Parks and supported by the Toronto Downtown West BIA.

The free event brought together local pet owners and neighbours for an afternoon of costumes, connection, and community spirit. Activities included a dog park meet-and-greet, a runway-style costume contest with three prize categories, and a photo booth, raffle, and social, offering prizing from local businesses.

Following the main event, attendees joined an After-Pawty at Atlas Paws, rounding out the day with more opportunities to connect.

Thank you to Toronto Dog Parks, Atlas Paws Club, participating businesses, and everyone who attended. We look forward to welcoming you back to future events at Clarence Square Park.
