ILEA Monster Mash

Step into the spooky side of the season for a night of tricks, treats, and a little bit of magic. Take the mic for live DJ karaoke and sing along to Halloween favorites, indulge your sweet tooth at our candy bar and spread of spooky bites, and watch an expert mixologist brew up a few mysterious potions.

Test your luck with our Trick or Treat Raffle, where you can purchase tickets for a chance to win some frightfully fun prizes. Then, see what the cards have in store with a tarot reading because you never know what the night might reveal.

Come for the treats, stay for the tricks, and get into the Halloween spirit!
