Cackling Contest

Do you talk to the spiders on your porch, decorate your yard with family skeletons, dress like a unicorn when you walk your dog, and sleep in a coffin? If your answer is no to any of these, we’ve got something to redeem your card-carrying Irvington status. Get ready to CACKLE!

Register to participate in the Irvington Halloween Festival's First-Annual adult CACKLING CONTEST at 1 p.m. on Saturday, October 29, 2022, on the Kids Zone stage at Audubon and Bonna.

Contest is limited to twenty, so make haste!

Register by October 25. 

Audience reaction is key, so bring your friends to cheer you on as you cackle! First-place winner will receive a $50 gift card, a certificate to display on their home wall of fame, and bragging rights.

Young (under 16) cacklers in training, don't miss the cackling lessons from our very own dancing witches of Irvington's Black Hat Society. Lessons and cackling practice begin at 1 p.m. on the day of the festival as an introduction to the adult cackling contest.
