14th Annual Witches of Delray Beach Bike Ride 2025 Announced

Achievement Centers for Children & Families (ACCF) have announced that they will host their 14th installment of the popular Witches of Delray Beach Bike Ride on Saturday, October 25. This year’s flight features an extended route, giving witches even more room to soar! Once again, witches will enchant Downtown Delray Beach — taking flight from City Hall and cackling down the iconic Atlantic Avenue and Pineapple Grove in a swirl of magic.

An anticipated 300 witches will don their best witch-wear and extravagantly decorated brooms (bikes) to ride through scenic Downtown Delray Beach, all guided by the Delray Beach Police Department. The ride will begin promptly at 8:30 a.m.

After the ride, the witchy celebration will continue with music, mingling, and awards including “Best Costume,” “Best Witch Cackle,” “Best Decorated Broom (Bike),” and “Best Group Theme.”

Fun and flair will abound with the Annual Hat Decorating Party, now part of the official Do Good Delray kickoff celebration on October 1 at 7 p.m. at Tin Roof, hosted by Project Runway reality star Amanda Perna of the House of Perna Boutique & Atelier, Tin Roof and the Delray Beach Chamber of Commerce. The ACCF will provide hats, crafts, and both couture and traditional decorating materials. The event will be held at 8 E. Atlantic Avenue, Delray Beach, and space is limited.

Longtime event partner Tim Finnegan’s Irish Pub in Delray Beach will host the signature “Witches Brew” fundraiser on Friday, October 17 from 6–9 p.m. Expect raffles, contests, food and drinks, prizes for Best Decorated Table and Best Dressed Brew Attendee, and so much more.

Supporters to date include BetrProject, Craft Food Tours, Delray Dermatology and Cosmetic Center, and Patty Jones. Throughout October, ACCF will offer a variety of Ways to Be Wicked with the Witches of Delray. For registration and event details, visit tinyurl.com/Witches2025.

Funds raised from the Witches Ride directly benefit Achievement Centers for Children & Families, a community-based organization dedicated to serving under-resourced children and families in Delray Beach and surrounding communities.

“Fourteen years in, the Witches Ride is more than just a tradition — it’s a celebration of community and creativity,” said Stephanie Seibel, CEO of the Achievement Centers. “What began as a fun, whimsical event has grown into powerful support for the families we serve. Each year, we’re blown away by the enthusiasm and generosity that fills the streets. It’s a beautiful reminder of what’s possible when people come together for a cause that truly matters.”
