New Orleans Halloween Voodoo Festival
This year Sydneysiders will have the chance to experience a little of the New Orleans magic.
Overview
For 14 years, the Voodoo Festival has possessed New Orleans' Halloween with some of the world's most sought-after live music acts, from Pearl Jam to The Cure to Nine Inch Nails. This year, Sydneysiders will have the chance to experience a little of the magic, with The Bourbon getting their ghoul on in preparation for the city's first ever Voodoo.
From 6pm, doors will open to reveal a scarily transformed venue, complete with evil twins. Headline acts are Australian rockabilly band Pat Capocci and the Two-Timing Playboys and urban party outfit Pocketful of Soul. They'll be delivering killer guitar licks and dance tunes until late.
Award-winning chef James Metcalfe is conjuring up a Halloween-inspired menu, featuring oysters with Bloody Mary granita and spiced pumpkin pie with maple ice cream. Entry is free, plus all guests will receive a complimentary cocktail, courtesy of sponsors Smirnoff and George Dickel. Costume's not compulsory, but it's definitely anticipated. Why not get into the spirit?
