Halloween. In Vegas. These are magical words. To help you prepare for the mind-blowingness of it all, we’ve got five places for you to check out. Now all you need is a costume...
It’s a long-standing personal rule: if the “Thriller” dance is involved, you’ll make an appearance. In this particular case, the well-coordinated zombies are professional dancers, who’ll also be dangling from bungee cords over the crowd and taming pythons for four nights straight. After which, they’ll move on to terrorizing the city at large.
Sometimes, a Halloween party gets so infamous, so sprawling that it spills out over three venues (The Joint, Muse Ballroom and Artist Hall), and sideshows like a welding-themed burlesque act and a banana-shaped mechanical bull start to seem almost normal. We can’t stress “almost” enough.
It wouldn’t be Vegas without a jackpot. Here, that means you’ll have a chance at $100,000 being awarded for the best costumes at four different venues in the Palms, with subcategories for “best undead,” “best sci-fi” and “sexiest.” But maybe just focus on one of the three.
To help you revive your fond memories of candy hunting, Nite Tour is treating you to drink specials and candy-flavored shots at four raucous outposts of the Strip, including Gold Lounge, Brand, the blackjack-equipped Deuce Lounge and Diablo’s Cantina. After which, you may just TP the Palazzo.
Nothing says frightening like... Swedish house music. So a squad of DJs known as the Swedish House Mafia is descending on the Joint for a blowout Halloween show dubbed “Masquerade Motel.” You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.
