Default Halloween 2017 - events

Anyone know of some good nightclub/pub type events going on October 28th? looking to get dressed up with my gf, get our costumes on and wanted to go downtown somewhere fun to party. Any recommendations would be great, preferably lots of people, great atmosphere, what are some of the most fun Halloween events/parties in Calgary you've been to?

Thanks guys!

Calgary's hottest Halloween Party is Boo! at the #1 Legion.

Club promoter Tranny McDonald has gone all out.

This place has everything: Freddie Mercury's ghost, a punk band called the Baseball Furies, a Battling Tops tournament, and human Halloween Kisses.

Human halloween kisses?

You know, it's that thing where you fill your jack'o'lantern with all of your kids 'missing' candy and make out with it instead of eating dinner.

You scared me for a second, I thought Sled Island/CJSW had changed the theme haha . . .

Here's the actual party at the #1 Legion, which I've gone to three consecutive years:

Each year, Sled Island teams up with CJSW 90.9FM to close out the CJSW Funding Drive with a three-floor Halloween blowout. This year's party will be our hugest yet, with more than 15 local bands (lineup coming soon!) covering iconic jock jams on the main floor, a dance party upstairs and karaoke in the#basement!

I've always found it pretty fun, and the drives are cheap. Then you head over to U and Me for late-night Chinese food!

To actually answer your question, We used to go to Craft on 10th ave for Halloween. Was always a good time. Busy and lots of people dressed up.

Part of Boo! is actually true - but the # 1 Legion (CJSW/Sled Island) party on the 28th is sold out.

Here is another one:

Might just be the way I read the OP but I don't think he is looking for a concert.

Other people might be. I don't know the club scene.

Maybe this:

I'd be willing to invite you over to hand out halloween candy at my door while I take my kids out.

I can pay in homebrew and you can eat 1 candy for every 6 you hand out.

You haven't thought this through.

Candy is cheap. I'm more worried about my tasty beer.

Anyone ever been in Maui for Halloween?
Will be there this year and heard they have a pretty big party. Worth taking a costume on our trip?
