Halloween 2020 In NYC

Ah! The holidays are around the corner and I’m still trying to figure out how they’re going to unfold for our family. We want to partake in our yearly traditions but we are very much still concerned about Covid-19, and keeping our community safe. Halloween  is this weekend and I know many families around the country are asking themselves if they’ll trick or treat! With cases on the rise again, it’s incredibly important we manage these special occasions with the outmost of caution. Many NYC annual halloween fairs and festivals are cancelled, but businesses are adjusting to the times, to provide festive fun safely for families of all ages. I hope this list of halloween fun can help NYC readers in making the right decision for their families this weekend.
