💡 Know Before You Go

🎃 Sort transport in advance — rideshares surge on Halloween night; book early or designate a driver.

🎃 Bring ID — 21+ events check at the door, no exceptions, even with a ticket.

🎃 Arrive before 11 PM — lines peak late; early arrival means faster entry and cheaper drinks.

🎃 Buy early-bird tickets — prices climb in tiers and the final tier often sells out before Halloween weekend.
