Families with children aged 14 and under are invited to participate in the Downtown Westfield Virtual Halloween Costume Contest. Due to Covid-19, we have created a new format for the 2020 contest. We are asking parents to submit a 30-second video of their child or family in a Halloween costume. Parents with multiple children may submit a video for each child.
Contest judges will choose the top two semifinalists in each category. The Downtown Westfield Corporation will contact each of the semifinalists to participate in a Zoom Event on Saturday, October 31, 2020 from 1pm to 2pm.
During the Zoom Event a runner up and winner will be chosen in each category. Runners up and winners will receive a medal and a gift card to a downtown Westfield business.
