39th Annual 17th Street High Heel Race
About the event
DC's Halloween-week drag sprint down 17th Street in Dupont Circle,. Racers in heels run the block from R Street to Church Street; the street fills hours before the start, so come early for a spot along the barriers. Free to watch. The mayor's office co-hosts it.
