Come casual or in full Halloween costume to enjoy music, face painting, interactive art, and live contortionists. We’ll then dance the night away as we move down to Nightmare on Normal Street, San Diego’s annual LGBTQ Halloween costume contest and block party. It’s a night of fun, fright, and fantastic food you won’t want to miss!
