There is a Monster’s Ball coming to the RDS for Halloween week

For one night only, the grand Concert Hall will become a haunted house with a touch of the cirque du freak.

The thing about Halloween, and it is kind of the same thing about New Year’s Eve, is that the amount of potential plans can get a little overwhelming.

And how do you know the plan you’ve made, the decision of the party you’re going to attend at the expense of all the others, is going to be the right choice? What if one of the other parties is a whole lot better and you’re here at this one which is… fine, I guess…

However, the concern shouldn’t be a problem if you decide to head along to Danse Macabre: Halloween’s Monster Ball at the RDS Concert Hall.

Self-described as “Ireland’s most decadent Halloween party”, it comes from the same folk who brought Dublin the incredibly popular Prohibition and Gatsby themed parties that have sprung up recently.

The night is strictly fancy-dress, and across the night you’ll cross paths with DJs, live music acts, dance and variety acts, immersive performances, cabaret, while Rocky Horror Picture Show Ireland will show you the moves for what is set to be Ireland’s biggest time warp.

Danse Macabre is set to take place on Sunday 27 October, kicking off at 8pm, and tickets for the event can be purchased right here.
