🚗 PARKING
Halloween parade street closures and parking restrictions will affect the area. Don’t count on finding a spot directly on Halsted or Belmont. Check posted signs carefully and consider reserving parking in advance through SpotHero or ParkWhiz. Public transportation is likely your easiest option!
