Manhattan Halloween Parties 2026, Neighborhood by Neighborhood

In New York, where you start the night decides most of it. Your hotel, your apartment, the friend's place where everyone gets ready: the party closest to it usually wins. So here is Halloween 2026 sorted by map, not by calendar, moving uptown from SoHo.

The short answer: In SoHo, it's The Descent at Submercer (Fri Oct 30). On the Lower East Side, Dead Disco at PUBLIC Hotel (Thu Oct 29). In Chelsea, Masquerade Inferno at LouLou (Fri Oct 30). In Midtown, Heaven & Hell at Eden on Halloween night (Sat Oct 31). Across the river in Brooklyn, LUNA: Day of the Dead (Sun Nov 1). All are 21+, with tickets on Eventbrite.

Downtown

SoHo: The Descent at Submercer

• Address: 147 Mercer St
• When: Friday, Oct 30 · 10 PM – 4 AM
• Age: 21+

By day, SoHo is cast-iron facades and shopping bags. On Friday night, The Descent heads the other way: down. It's underground nightlife beneath Mercer Street, the downtown option for anyone who wants their Halloween hidden from the sidewalk.

Based downtown? This is the Friday that keeps you close to home. Details: The Descent at Submercer.

Lower East Side: Dead Disco at PUBLIC Hotel

• Address: 215 Chrystie St
• When: Thursday, Oct 29 · 10 PM – 4 AM
• Age: 21+

The Lower East Side has always done late nights well. Dead Disco opens the weekend here, at the Micro Club / Roof at PUBLIC Hotel, with a disco-afterlife concept that suits the neighborhood's taste for staying out.

Pairs with: SoHo on Friday. Two downtown nights, back to back, and neither needs a long ride. Details: Dead Disco at PUBLIC Hotel.

The west side

Chelsea: Masquerade Inferno at LouLou

• Address: 176 8th Ave
• When: Friday, Oct 30 · 9 PM – 4 AM
• Age: 21+

Chelsea on 8th Avenue, and the earliest start of the late nights. Masquerade Inferno puts a mask at the center of the night and heat in the name.

The Friday decision: Chelsea masked or SoHo underground. Both run the same night, and each is its own ticket, so pick one. Details: Masquerade Inferno at LouLou.

Midtown

Midtown: Heaven & Hell at Eden

• Address: 20 W 36th St, between Fifth and Sixth Avenues
• When: Saturday, Oct 31 · 10 PM – 5 AM
• Age: 21+

Halloween night lands in the middle of Manhattan. That matters for groups: when friends are coming from downtown, uptown and the outer boroughs, Midtown is the fairest meeting point. Eden is multi-level, the theme asks you to choose a side, and it runs until 5 AM, the latest finish of the weekend.

Details: Heaven & Hell at Eden.

The bonus: Brooklyn

Brooklyn Bridge Park: LUNA: Day of the Dead

• Address: 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge – Harriet's Rooftop & Lounge, 60 Furman St, Brooklyn
• When: Sunday, Nov 1 · 2 PM – 2 AM
• Age: 21+

The weekend leaves Manhattan for its finale. LUNA sits on the Brooklyn waterfront, across the East River from Lower Manhattan, and it's the only event that starts in the afternoon: rooftop in daylight, lounge after dark. Details: LUNA: Day of the Dead.

If you're staying in…

• SoHo, Nolita or the Lower East Side: Thursday at PUBLIC Hotel, Friday at Submercer.
• Chelsea or the West Village: Friday at LouLou.
• Midtown or near Herald Square: Saturday at Eden.
• Brooklyn: Sunday at LUNA, then cross the river for the Manhattan nights.
• A hotel you picked for other reasons: start with the night you care most about, and treat the neighborhood as a bonus.

Pairing neighborhoods across the weekend

• Downtown double: the Lower East Side on Thursday, SoHo on Friday.
• West side to Midtown: Chelsea on Friday, Midtown on Saturday. Mask first, then the date.
• Manhattan to Brooklyn: Midtown on Saturday night, Brooklyn on Sunday afternoon. Halloween, then the Day of the Dead.

Each night is its own Eventbrite listing, so you buy each one from its event page.

Crossing town

• Most subway lines run overnight, less often after midnight. Check the MTA for weekend service changes. Check your route before you leave the venue.
• Coming from different neighborhoods? Meet near the venue rather than trying to travel together.
• On a busy night, walking a few blocks before calling a car can save time at closing.
• Every event is 21+, so bring valid photo ID wherever you start.

The full calendar, with every address, is on the events page. Planning for a group in any of these neighborhoods? Compare tables by group size on our VIP tables page.

The organizer's Halloween NYC 2026 neighborhood guide links each night to its venue page.
