Each year the children's parade serves as a precursor to the annual Halloween parade for adults. The grown-up version features 60-thousand costumed participants.
Halloween is celebrated every year on October 31st in many western countries and is thought to have originated in Britain around 2000 years ago as a pagan festival.
