Only a place like Miami can make something scary look sexy. Looking for somewhere to celebrate Halloween 2018? Read below for five spooky celebrations in the Magic City you don’t want to miss:
Get “Behind the Mask” at Seaspice.
One of South Florida’s sexiest watering holes is Seaspice {422 NW North River Drive, Miami; 305.440.4200}, and this Halloween, it’s throwing a mystic celebration for the ages: Behind the Mask. Hosted in partnership with Elyx Vodka, Perrier-Jouët, and Avion Tequila, this waterfront setting will become a bone-chilling backdrop for an extravagant night of mystery, serendipity, and fright. Running from 5 p.m. to 1 a.m. on Sunday, October 28, this sexy soirée will feature hypnotizing live music and performances, cunning cocktails, and a costume competition. You’ll want to enter! The winner gets a chilled magnum of Perrier-Jouët Champagne. Guests are welcome to attend Seaspice’s usual Sunday Funday brunch, which will be offered from Noon to 3 p.m. that same day. RSVPs for Behind the Mask are recommended and can be done by calling 305.440.4200.
See The Glam Dead at The Living Room at Faena Miami Beach.
On Saturday, October 27, head to the Faena Miami Beach {3201 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach; 305.534.8800} for Night of The Glam Dead, a Jane Austen-meets-zombie fête at Miami’s most lavish hotel. Starting at 9 p.m. in the Faena Theater, this party—presented by Avion Tequila—invites guests to throw on Victorian garb, bring out their gothic side, sip on cryptic cocktails and watch live performances by Patrick & The Swayzees and resident DJs. Adding some extra spook to the night, there will be palm and tarot card readers, candlelit altars and Miami’s sexiest renditions of the most beloved (dead) characters.
