AUSTRALIA'S FIRST-EVER HALLOWEEN FESTIVAL

AUSTRALIA'S FIRST-EVER HALLOWEEN FESTIVAL
The dead don’t rest… and they’ve got plans for The Rocks.
Back from the grave for another year of ghoulish glam, killer costumes, and blood-curdling cocktails, Ghost Festival is returning this Halloween and it’s staking its claim as Sydney’s unmissable rendezvous with the dead.
Running across four epic nights from October 30 to November 2, Ghost Festival is Australia’s first and only Halloween street festival. In its inaugural year, it saw over 115,000 souls descend upon The Rocks and Circular Quay, turning Sydney’s historic heart into a haunted hive of spooky celebrations.
Now, Ghost is rising once more with a jam-packed program of immersive experiences, live music, terrifying theatre, and blood-soaked dance floors that’ll raise the dead (or at least keep you dancing ‘til 1am).
And this year, four restless spirits rise from the underworld to unlock the gates of Ghost Festival: Bites & Brews, a feast of frightful flavours; Feel the Fear, where chills and thrills lurk around every corner; Party with the Dead, a wild celebration that rattles bones ‘til late; and Halloween Classics, a timeless homage to the dark, the twisted, and the iconic.
Ghost Festival is Sydney’s first Halloween Festival. This spine-tingling event is set to redefine Halloween celebrations across Australia. Over four days and nights, Sydney’s historic Rocks district will transform into a haunted playground where the eerie history and legendary tales of The Rocks come alive across multiple iconic venues and landmarks. The festival will feature unique activation experiences, high-energy entertainment, family-friendly activities, delectable food, fine wines and cocktails, and thrilling nightlife for adults. Designed to captivate and thrill visitors of all ages, this free event promises an unforgettable Halloween experience.
