We’ve had a lot of people asking about the difference between the Castle Monster Ball and the Shrine Monster Ball, so here’s the easiest way to explain it…
🏰 October 17 - VIP Castle Ball
This is the original Monster Ball experience. Limited tickets, a one-of-a-kind castle setting, all-you-can-eat pizza, photo opportunities, bar and a more intimate Halloween party. If you’ve ever wanted to experience Monster Ball at the castle, this is your chance.
🎃 October 24 - Monster Ball at the Shrine
This is our biggest event of the year. Thousands of attendees, massive dance floor, huge production, multiple bars, DJs, costume contest, unlimited pizza, and the largest Halloween party in the Midwest.
They’re not competing events. They’re two completely different nights.
Some of you will love the exclusive castle atmosphere.
Some of you will want the giant Shrine experience.
And if you’re anything like us, you’ll be at both.
Whichever you choose, we’re excited to celebrate Halloween with you again this year.
