We’ve put together a night packed with magic fun and pure joy. Here’s just a taste of what’s waiting for you…
First up is the music! We are so excited to have DJ Paula O on the decks spinning the ultimate feel good dance floor filling bangers from 7pm straight through until midnight! No lulls no quiet moments just perfect tracks and non stop rhythm all night long. You won’t be able to keep your feet still! ✨
And that’s just the start. Get ready for a line up like no other with each act bringing their own wonderful wild flavour to the night!
We’ve got Bigg Taystee bringing the glitter the glamour. Pure star quality dazzling energy and a whole lot of sparkle! ✨
Then brace yourselves for Cavity The Clown. He is the ghoul the gore! Fair warning there will be blood and this one is definitely not for the squeamish. If you love a good unapologetically spooky thrill this is going to be unforgettable!
And make sure you watch your heads for Lucinda La Whore. She is the Wicked Witch of East Anglia! Sweets will be flying through the air all night long so keep your eyes peeled and your hands ready. You never know what might come your way! ♀️✨
Lucinda’s also got her very own Trick or Treat Tombola up and running. It’s full of all kinds of wonderful prizes and delightfully horrid tricks! Will you risk it to see what fate has in store? And if you’re feeling brave you can always bob for an apple to change your luck. Who knows which way it’ll go!
We’ve got an amazing raffle too with some truly spectacular prizes up for grabs! How does a whole hour of free tattoo time sound? That’s right the incredibly talented River at Self Made Tattoo has gifted one hour completely free! Or what about a full escape room experience for four people courtesy of Great Yarmouth Escape Rooms? And if that wasn’t enough we’ve got our very own limited edition Glitter and Ghouls tote bag. It’s one of the most coveted keepsakes of the night! You won’t want to miss your chance to win any of these beauties. ✨
And here’s the best part. Every single ticket is packed with value from the moment you walk through the door! Your ticket gets you entry of course plus a free glass of Bucks Fizz or Orange Juice to welcome you and your very own free raffle ticket included at absolutely no extra cost!
Fancy dress? It’s practically mandatory! ♀️♂️✨ Go gorgeously ghoulish with dark glamour and haunting elegance or go gloriously glittery with sequins neon and rainbows that shine even in the darkest corners.
