TOMS RIVER – Preparations are already underway for one of Ocean County’s biggest holiday traditions — the 2025 Toms River Fire Company No. 1 Halloween Parade.
The annual event will step off at 7 p.m. on October 31 along Main Street and Highland Parkway in downtown Toms River. The parade is known for its elaborate floats, marching bands, costumes, pets, and family-friendly Halloween fun.
Early registration will be available every Tuesday in October from 6 to 7 p.m. at the Robbins Street firehouse in downtown Toms River. On parade day, registration will be open from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the same location.
Organizers encouraged residents and visitors alike to take part. “Whether you’re marching, riding, or just watching, this parade is a Toms River tradition you won’t want to miss,” officials said.
