When you combine art, music, a costume contest, cocktails, fortune-telling, and food, you get a party you cannot miss! Sign up early for your chance to save on tickets to get in on more activities, more friends, more fun, more giveaways, and more scares this year.
Want the ultimate Museum of the Dead experience? VIP hour is back! Your ticket includes exclusive American Psycho-themed swag, entry to the VIP lounge (with dedicated bar), a meal ticket to the food trucks, a complimentary drink, and a Tarot Card reading (7:00-7:45 pm).
Timed-ticket alert! Be sure to sign up ahead of time to secure a time slot with our fortune-tellers. If you do not reserve a space, you will never learn your fate! (There’s no additional cost to reserving a spot, but space for readings is limited.)
The link to register for a tarot card reading slot is shared in the confirmation email sent when you buy tickets.

Throughout the night, there will be MAG employees walking around and inspecting everyone’s costumes. If your costume is above and beyond (which we’re sure it will be!), you will receive a card saying that you qualify to win. At 10:00 pm, everyone will gather in the Vanden Brul Pavilion and the DJ will announce the winners.
Winners will get great prizes from local businesses! Afraid we didn’t see you? Post a picture of you in your costume at MAG, tag us, and use #museumofthedead10.
