Downtown Summerlin hosts Parade of Mischief
Downtown Summerlin has announced the return of the Halloween event, Parade of Mischief, produced by BESTAgency, this October.
The frightfully fun, family-friendly parade will fill the streets of Downtown Summerlin with mischievous mayhem every Friday and Saturday night in October starting Oct. 1 at 7 p.m. Other parade nights include Oct. 7, 8, 14, 15, 21, 22, 28 and 29. The parade is free, open to the public and takes place along Park Centre Drive.
“Parade of Mischief is back and better than ever. We’ve added three themed floats that will enhance patron visibility and add to the overall entertainment value of each performance,” said Halee Harczynski, senior marketing director, Downtown Summerlin. “In addition to the new floats, we’ve cast over 30 local youth as dancing zombies, ghosts, witches, wizards, wild creatures and more. It’s an event you won’t want to miss!”
Downtown Summerlin is part of a planned urban center, serving the entire Las Vegas Valley. It includes retail, entertainment/sports, offices, a hotel and multifamily residential elements, all designed to create a vibrant, walkable urban core within the award-winning 22,500-acre Summerlin master-planned community. Downtown Summerlin totals nearly 400 acres and features more than 125 stores and restaurants in a streetscape-shopping environment with pedestrian thoroughfares and dynamic storefronts.
The first phase of development opened to the public in October 2014. Today, Downtown Summerlin is also home to City National Arena, the practice facility for the National Hockey League’s Vegas Golden Knights, and Las Vegas Ballpark, a 10,000-capacity minor league baseball stadium that is home to the Las Vegas Aviators of the Pacific Coast League. Downtown Summerlin boasts two Class-A office buildings — ONE and TWO Summerlin — that encompass a combined 380,000 square feet in the heart of the retail epicenter. A third Class-A office building, 1700 Pavilion, spans 267,000 square feet on 3 acres directly south of Las Vegas Ballpark and will open by the end of the year.
In addition to Downtown Summerlin’s two luxury multi-family developments, Constellation and Tanager, a third, Tanager Echo, is on target to open in early 2023, providing an inclusive community with an abundance of residential, optimal office space and connected walkability within the master plan that creates a destination unlike anything else in Southern Nevada.
