Chicago Cultural Mile conducts preview of 2nd annual Halloween parade

CHICAGO (WLS) -- Halloween is more than two months away, which gives you plenty of time to plan out your costume for what's becoming a Chicago tradition.

The second annual Halloween Gathering Festival and Parade offered a preview Tuesday.

The Chicago Cultural Mile started the event last year to promote the city's diverse creative and artistic communities.

Along with the parade, the all-day festival will feature dance and theatre performances, art workshops and the city's longest soul train ever.

The festival is scheduled for October 22. For more information on the event, click here.
