Halloween. Two nights, no cover.
Friday 30 October & Saturday 31 October. Two different nights on purpose, and one orange wristband across both.
The weekend
| Friday 30 October, from eight | The costume party. Live music, dancing, Halloween cocktails, $500 in costume prizes. |
|---|---|
| Saturday 31 October, from nine | The Parents' After Party. You did the trick-or-treating. This is the part that is yours. |
| Both nights | Open to two. No new admission after midnight. No cover, either night. |
Friday is the costume night
Dress up. Not a suggestion — Friday is the night the room commits, and $500 in prizes is enough that people take it seriously and bring their friends to watch them take it seriously.
Live music and dancing all night. Halloween cocktails behind the bar. Places to take the photograph, because the costume is only worth it if somebody sees it.
Saturday belongs to the parents
Halloween falls on a Saturday this year, which means the whole of Berwyn spends the early evening walking a child around in the cold.
We open the after party at nine, for the shift that comes off at eight.
Costumes completely optional — most people are done by then. Music, Halloween drink specials, late-night food, and a room full of people having exactly the same evening you just had. Walk in. No booking, no cover.
### Bring a piece of candy
After nine on Saturday, a piece of Halloween candy is your admission.
Every piece goes to local food banks. It is a low bar deliberately — you already have a bowl of it by the door, and it is the easiest good thing anybody does all week.
The orange band
Halloween is the second of the five Full Set nights, and orange is its color.
One band per guest across the whole weekend — not one per night. Come Friday and Saturday, you already have yours. It gets you half off an appetizer here through November, and it is one of the five you need for January.
Questions
- Is there a cover?
- No. Neither night, in costume or out of it.
- What time should I get there?
- Friday the room fills from eight and the costume prizes are judged later in the night. Saturday opens at nine and fills quickly, because everybody arrives off the same schedule.
- Can I bring my kids?
- Until ten at night, with a parent or guardian. After ten it is twenty-one and over and we check ID at the door — which on Saturday is most of the night, so the early hours are the family ones.
- Do I need a costume on Saturday?
- No. Saturday is come-as-you-are. Friday is the one where the room dresses up.
- Can I book a table?
- Yes — up to eight online, nine or more through the group form. Saturday after nine is walk-in and there is no need to book at all. Reserve.
- How late are you open?
- Two, both nights, with last call at one thirty. Nobody is admitted after midnight.
Bring the group
Nine or more on either night, or the lounge held for a party — tell us the date & the headcount and a person answers, usually the same day.
