Off-Leash Dog Runs Beyond the Parade in New York
Large and small dog areas at a Tompkins Square run open from 6 AM to 11 PM, quieter after parade weekend.
🐾 East Village Dog Run
The 2026 Tompkins Square Halloween Dog Parade has passed, but the East Village dog run is an everyday stop. Dogs appeared as Knicks players, Bad Bunny, and an NYC trash can, while several cats made a surprise appearance.
For a regular outing, the run is open daily from 6 AM to 11 PM, with separate areas for large and small dogs. Secure double gates, summer pools, and shaded benches round out the practical details.
