Halloween EDM Festivals 2026: 9 Confirmed Dates and 2 to Watch

Halloween EDM festivals in 2026 stack onto one weekend, Friday October 30 and Saturday October 31, with two events landing the weekend before. Every date below was checked on the event's own page in September 2026. The list runs in date order, not by hype.

Nine events have published 2026 dates. Two more had not announced theirs at the time of writing: Hocus Pocus in Miami and Supernatural in Denver. They sit in a watch list at the end.

Each entry gives the venue, what the promoter has confirmed, and one note on what to wear.

How This List Was Checked

Dates come from each event's own site or ticket page, checked on September 8, 2026. Lineup names come from the official pages, or from EDMTunes in the case of Hulaween, where the official lineup is an image. Where a promoter had not posted 2026 details, the event went to the watch list rather than getting a guessed date.

The Weekend Before Halloween

1. Suwannee Hulaween, Live Oak, Florida

October 22 to 25, 2026, at the Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park. Hulaween is the earliest event on this list and the only four-day camping festival on it. Its oaks and the Spirit Lake art installations are the reason people return, and the music runs across electronic, jam and indie stages.

EDMTunes reported Pretty Lights, Excision and three nights of The String Cheese Incident at the top of the 2026 lineup. Green Velvet, STS9, Daily Bread, Of The Trees and Ben Böhmer sit further down. Nights get cold in late October in North Florida, so pack a hoodie and joggers with the costume.

2. Get Freaky, Magna, Utah

October 23 to 25, 2026, at The Great Saltair, with doors at 7 PM each night. Utah's state events listing places Salt Lake City's Halloween festival at the Saltair for 2026 and names this year's theme as Neon Nightmare.

Three nights, one indoor and outdoor venue on the edge of the Great Salt Lake. That theme is a hint. Neon and UV reactive prints fit this one better than a classic costume, and our guide to UV reactive clothing explains which fabrics light up.

Halloween Weekend Itself

3. Escape Halloween, San Bernardino, California

October 30 and 31, 2026, at the NOS Events Center. Insomniac's Halloween weekender has published its 2026 numbers: more than 85 artists across six stages over two nights. Single-day passes are on sale.

This is the event most people mean when they say Halloween rave. It is outdoors, it is warm at gates and cold by the last set, and the crowd dresses up. A full print set with a hoodie over it is the standard answer, and our guide to men's Halloween rave outfits lists eight versions.

4. Freaky Deaky, Austin, Texas

October 30 and 31, 2026, at the Travis County Exposition Center. Freaky Deaky is back under its own name in Austin for 2026. Four stages are listed on the official site, The Reactor, The Circuit, The Lab and The Chamber, and the lineup is published there.

Texas in late October swings between warm afternoons and cold nights. Shorts and a tank for the day, joggers and a hoodie in the bag for after dark.

5. BOO Seattle, Seattle, Washington

October 30 and 31, 2026, at WAMU Theater. BOO is Insomniac's indoor Halloween show, and the Seattle edition has two-day and single-day passes on sale with the 2026 lineup announced. Indoor means warm, so the layers stay in the car.

Indoor rooms also mean stage lighting close to the crowd. Pale and UV reactive prints read best here, which puts ghost and glow sets ahead of dark ones.

6. BOO Arizona, Scottsdale, Arizona

October 30 and 31, 2026, at WestWorld of Scottsdale. Arizona runs the same two nights as Seattle, with passes on sale and its lineup announced. Treat it as an outdoor show.

Scottsdale stays warm through Halloween, and desert dust is real. A bandana mask earns its place here for practical reasons before costume ones.

7. Factory 93 Halloween, Alameda, California

October 30 and 31, 2026, at The Gold Bar Hangar, 7 PM to 2 AM both nights, 21 and over. Factory 93 is Insomniac's house and techno brand, and the Bay Area edition takes over a former naval hangar on the water.

Night one, per the official page: 999999999, Richie Hawtin, Boys Noize, Indira Paganotto and ADRA. Night two: Jamie Jones, Franky Rizardo, SOSA, Silvie Loto and Papa Lu.

Warehouse rooms run darker than festival stages. All-over prints still work, but skip the props and keep the outfit to pieces you can dance in for seven hours.

8. Haunted Fest, Six Cities

Haunted Fest is Breakaway's Halloween series, and for 2026 it runs in six cities on the same weekend, all with tickets on sale:

• Columbus, Ohio, October 30, with it's murph, MPH and Twin Diplomacy
• Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, October 30, with Tape B and Mersiv
• Cincinnati, Ohio, October 30 and 31, with Knock2 and GRiZ
• St. Petersburg, Florida, October 30 and 31, with Eli Brown, Gordo and Hugel
• Atlanta, Georgia, October 30 and 31, with Two Friends and Tape B
• Charleston, South Carolina, October 31, with Knock2 and LYNY

Every one of these is a city show rather than a camping festival, so the outfit can be lighter. A matching group set photographs well at these, and the matching rave outfits collection sorts prints that come in both men's and women's cuts.

9. Dooms Night, Vancouver, British Columbia

October 31, 2026, at the Pacific Coliseum. Dooms Night is Vancouver's Halloween arena show, and it is the one event on this list outside the United States. Presale is live on the official site, and the lineup had not been announced at the time of writing.

Vancouver on Halloween night is wet and cold. Joggers, a hoodie and a set underneath for the arena floor. Canadian orders ship from the US, so allow for the border when timing the order.

Two to Watch

Hocus Pocus in Miami ran October 31 to November 2 in 2025, three nights of house and techno at Factory Town from sunset to sunrise. Its site still shows the 2025 dates.

Supernatural in Denver is Global Dance's one-night Halloween show at the National Western Complex. It ran October 25 in 2025 and has not posted a 2026 date either. Check both pages before booking travel.

What to Wear to a Halloween EDM Festival

Outdoor and Camping Events

Hulaween, Get Freaky, Escape, Freaky Deaky and BOO Arizona all put you outside after dark. Wear the print set as the base and add a hoodie or lounge shirt in the same theme. Bring joggers if the venue is a field or a fairground.

Our rave essentials checklist covers the bag, from the hydration pack to the spare socks.

Indoor Rooms and Arenas

BOO Seattle, Factory 93, Haunted Fest and Dooms Night are indoor or covered, so the layers come off at the door. Pick the print for the lighting: pale and UV reactive artwork under stage lights, anything you like under arena lights.

iEDM's full Halloween collection holds more than 500 pieces, and more than half of them are men's cuts. Women's sets come in the same prints for matching groups.

Frequently Asked Questions

When is Halloween weekend in 2026?

Halloween falls on a Saturday in 2026, so the weekend is Friday, October 30 and Saturday, October 31. Seven of the nine dated festivals above run on those two nights. Hulaween and Get Freaky run the weekend before.

Which Halloween EDM festivals are camping festivals?

Suwannee Hulaween is the only full camping festival on this list, four days at the Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park. Every other event is a city venue, a fairground or an arena, with nearby hotels rather than tents.

Are Halloween raves 18 and over or 21 and over?

It varies by event and venue. Factory 93 Halloween in Alameda is 21 and over. Check the age line on each ticket page before buying, because it is set by the venue, not the promoter.

What should I wear to a Halloween rave?

A themed all-over print set as the base, plus one warm layer in the same print. Add a bandana mask or bucket hat so the costume reads from a distance. Broken-in sneakers, always, and camping festivals add joggers and a hoodie for the overnight drop.
