Halloween Parade Party & Wild Food Festival?

I noticed the city council put a notice online on Tuesday that William Street West (from the Blue Note to The Small Crane) would be closed for a Halloween Parade Party & Wild Food Festival on Sunday, 27th October from 9pm to 2am.

Sounds interesting. Haven't heard anything about it since - anybody know what's planned or who's running it?
