- 2nd Annual Half-O-Ween Party, & karaoke too!! 🕷️💀🎃Brando's Lincoln Park, Chicago, IL
Multi-Meetup group event!
Had a blast last year (will post pics below), I figured I'd make it an annual party!! What is Half-O-Ween? It's the 6 month or halfway point in the year before Halloween. It's kind of like "Christmas in July" for Christmas. And really just a chance to have a bonus Halloween Party and wear costumes!! While costumes aren't required, they are HIGHLY recommended, or at least black/orange, Halloween t-shirt, something Halloween related!! Hey it's a Halloween party in April, what better excuse to have fun and dress up!? Brando's Lincoln Park is a great venue, they serve nachos, and happy hour specials go til 8pm! They also have karaoke for those who love to get up and sing, or just want to support those who do!! Let's celebrate a bonus Halloween!!
Please wear a Halloween costume or Halloween themed shirt, black/orange colors to make it more fun! We are starting at 7 pm. Please be on time, as it will get crowded and we want to grab some good tables. Meet in the back room by the karaoke! Karaoke is available but no one ever has to sing. I do like to get groups of people singing together so those who are shy can still join if they want to but feel more comfortable in a group! Let's mingle, party and celebrate 1/2 way to Halloween!EVERYONE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR OWN TABS AS EACH PAYS SEPARATELY WITH THE BARTENDER. NO GROUP BILLS TO KEEP THINGS SIMPLE & EASY! THEY TAKE CASH & CREDIT.
