Las Vegas Halloween

Las Vegas 2012 will be one of the biggest celebrations of the year, so if you’re thinking about hitting Vegas anytime soon, this is the perfect time to go. The Vegas Halloween parties 2012 will be infinitely better than any costume party at home—so start planning your costume early! While of course there are the clubs, casinos, and events that make Halloween in Vegas special, it is really the parties that make this a not-to-be-missed holiday. Read on to discover details about the biggest Halloween parties in Vegas.

Fetish and Fantasy Ball

The party in Vegas is the Fetish and Fantasy Ball. Last year, more than 6,000 guests showed up to party in one of the city’s most popular locations, at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino; this year it's moved to the South Point Hotel & Casino . If you’re considering Las Vegas Halloween 2012, you’re in luck because the parties go on for days. The Fetish and Fantasy Ball will be held from 10 pm to 4 am, but you will be able to flaunt your costume all weekend long. While this party is known for sexy costumes, the fire performers, DJs, stilt walkers, and scary monsters aren’t bad either.

Night of the Killer Costumes

If you’re the one who always imagines the most creative costume, then you must take your talent to Vegas Halloween Parties 2012. Of all the parties, Night of the Killer Costumes is known as the premiere event for creative costumes in Las Vegas. There are more than $100,000 in cash and prizes to be won by those who are willing to flaunt their creations on for Halloween 2012. The Palms Casino Resort has gained recognition in the last several years for the quality of this event, which has themed parties in the Playboy Club, Moon Nightclub, Ghostbar, and Rain. If you’re going for sexiest costume, for instance, hit the Playboy Club, or if you prefer a sci-fi costume, try your luck to win $5,000 at Moon Nightclub. The Ghostbar gives prizes for the best undead costume and Rain for the best costumes overall. Tickets should be purchased in advance for Night of the Killer Costumes.

Masquerade Motel

If you’re making a long weekend out of Las Vegas Halloween 2012, then the party will continue on Sunday, October 31. Masquerade Motel is a party held at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. Doors open at 10 pm and tickets are available in advance. This year, the special guest will be Swedish House Mafia, a trio of DJs who are sure to deliver a memorable night in Sin City.

Studio 54’s Nightmare on 54th Street

Not all of the Vegas Halloween parties 2012 are just one day, so if you want to stretch your Halloween celebration out, this might be the best way to go. Studio 54’s Nightmare on 54th Street lasts all week long. Hosted by the MGM Grand, this party starts on Tuesday at 10 pm and will run nightly all week long through Saturday night. This year is the club’s thirteenth annual Halloween bash and will include costume contests, Michael Jackson Thriller theme nights, and more.

Studio 54’s Beaux Arts Ball

The Grand Finale to the Nightmare on 54th Street celebration is Studio 54’s Beaux Arts Ball. Taking place on Monday, October 31 and lasting from 9 pm until midnight, this event is known for its costume contests and custom production numbers.
