8 Best Halloween Parties in Miami

Few cities do Halloween better than Miami. We're a party city, after all. And while the spookiness of Salem eludes the Magic City, we certainly know how to have a good time.

Halloween falls on a Tuesday this year. However, venues and party promoters will be throwing events all weekend long as well as the day of Halloween. This year, your options include a massive Halloween rave in Hialeah and a perreo that promises to bring the end of days.

Here are the eight best Halloween parties happening in Miami:

Horror Fest at Revolution Live

Alternative-minded promoters the Black Market, Equinox Booking, and HardcoreForPunx are teaming up again this year for Horror Fest at Revolution Live. The two-day event will host a bevy of bands along with drag and burlesque performers. The lineup includes Madball, the Casualties, Day by Day, Zig Zag, Implosive Disgorgence, Fallen God, Knock Em Dead, and Devalued. Revolution Live and its sister venue, Stache, will be transformed into a haunted house for you to explore. 6:30 p.m. to 2 a.m. Friday, October 27, and Saturday, October 28, at Revolution Live, 100 SW Third Ave., Fort Lauderdale; blackmarketfest.com.

Big names on the bill include Maceo Plex, Camelphat, Loco Dice, Jamie Jones, Seth Troxler, John Summit, Paco Osuna, and Nicole Moudaber.

Vampire Weekend at Domicile

Domicile is promising a bloody good time for its Vampire Weekend. Billed as a "double feature," the event spans October 27-28 and will hopefully have you home back in your coffin before sunrise. Friday features sets by German techno producer Nur Jaber and Detroit-bred Henry Brooks, while Saturday sees Brooklyn rave master Kyruh and Tunisia-born, German-based producer Cera Khin. With a lineup like that, expect the music to be hard, gritty, and perfect for a blood-sucking fete. 11 p.m. Friday, October 27, and Saturday, October 28, at Domicile, 6391 NE Second Ave., Miami; instagram.com/domicile.miami. Tickets cost $25 to $40 via shotgun.live.

Resistance Miami Presents Adriatique at M2

Ultra Music Festival's Resistance offshoot is again popping up at M2, this time with a Halloween lineup that includes Adriatique, Kölsch, and Andhim. Swiss duo Adriatique is definitely the reason you're going to want to spend your Saturday night in South Beach. Adrian Shala and Adrian Schweizer have been making music together for more than a decade. Their sets, which blend house and techno, are long and meditative, building into a hypnotic groove that will keep you dancing all night. 10 p.m. Saturday, October 28, at M2, 1235 Washington Ave., Miami Beach; resistancemiami.com. Tickets cost $49.95 via dice.fm.

Diablo Halloween at Oasis Wynwood

If you prefer your Halloween celebration en español, Oasis Wynwood is hosting Diablo Halloween. The lineup includes a trio of urbano artists: Blessd, Omar Courtz, and Dei V. Colombian singer and rapper Blessd has worked with acts like Myke Towers, Justin Quiles, and Maluma. He released his debut album, Hecho en Medellín, in 2021 and was highlighted by Billboard as one of the Latin artists to watch in 2022. Meanwhile, Omar Courtz and Dei V both hail from Puerto Rico, quickly gaining recognition with their takes on the urbano sound. 11 p.m. Saturday, October 28, at Oasis Wynwood, 2335 N. Miami Ave., Miami; oasiswynwood.com. Tickets cost $45 via axs.com.

Perreo Apocalíptico at the Ground

Local party starter Perreo del Future is back with its Perreo Apocalíptico, celebrating the end of days with plenty of bass and ass-shakin'. Neoperreo artist Six Sex is headlining. The Argentinian artist is known for her left-field take on the reggaeton genre. The lineup is rounded out by local beat drivers Saturnsarii, SDRV, Rude Boy, Near Dark, and Girlcop. There's also a special guest on the lineup that hasn't been announced — here's hoping it's the party-starved Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. 11 p.m. Saturday, October 28, at the Ground, 34 NE 11th St. #2, Miami; thegroundmiami.com. Tickets cost $21 to $27 via dice.fm.

Fisher, Guy Gerber, and Whitesquare at Club Space

Australian producer Fisher seems to be everywhere these days. Love him or hate him, Fisher is no doubt popular right now. The former pro surfer recently shut down Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles alongside British producer Chris Lake. He's set to take over Club Space's terrace on Halloween night, promising to deliver a set that will make it worth calling in sick to work the next day. Also on the bill are Isaerali producer Guy Gerber and Italian merry-maker Whitesquare. 11 p.m. Tuesday, October 31, at Club Space, 34 NE 11th St., Miami; 786-357-6456; clubspace.com.
