Nothing says Halloween quite like a night in the graveyard. Head to Oakland Cemetery for a 60-minute tour of one of the most beautifully haunting areas in the city.
Gates will stay open after dark at the historic locale for anyone who wants to delight in the amazing art and architecture when the sun goes down. The last tour is on October 28.
3. Carnevil Halloween Party
This is touted as Atlanta’s premier bash. Top DJs, a costume contest, and an open bar round out this adults-only party on October 26.
Any costume is welcome, but guests are advised they are not permitted to enter with weapons, and masks must be removed at the entrance for ID purposes.
4. Nightmare on Peachtree Street Halloween Bash
This party will be held on October 29 from 9 pm to 2 am. Tickets are just $20 a person for the event held at Southern Exchange.
There is a planned open bar, DJs, dancing, party favors, and a costume contest. You and your group are sure to have a blast.
5. Saints and Sinners Ball
If your perfect Halloween party includes live music, check out the annual Saints and Sinners Ball at Park Tavern on Oct. 7 at 7 p.m. Hosted by the ALT105.7 radio station, there will be themed drinks and live performances by Elle King, Albert Hammond Jr., and Camera Box.
Tickets are $25 (including fees). The party will take place under a controlled tent, so it’ll be a great time, rain or shine!
Adults have as much right to enjoy Halloween as kids. If you decide to attend any of the events we’ve listed above, you’re sure to have a fantastic time. Remember that your good time shouldn’t mean a tragic night for someone else — if you choose to drink, catch another ride home.
