There are plenty of exciting ways to celebrate Halloween in San Francisco, ranging from movie nights to massive bar crawls throughout the city. If you prefer to spend your Halloween dancing, there’s a massive concert on October 30, taking over the Palace of Fine Arts for an 8-hour concert and dance party.
San Francisco Ghost Palace 2026
One of the biggest Halloween parties in San Francisco is at the Palace of Fine Arts. The party is 8 hours long, starting at 9 p.m. and running until 5 a.m., so you have plenty of time to dance the night (and morning) away in your costume. Aptly called the Ghost Palace, the show features multiple stages with popular DJs.
The music is just one part of the party, with drag performances and immersive art exhibitions throughout the venue. Attendees can also dance at a silent disco, go in a foam pit, or see live painting by artists. You can also get your face painted, take a break from dancing, and grab a bite to eat from one of the many food trucks.
For the music, you can expect a mix of house, techno, pop, and disco. Tickets are currently on sale and start at $134.26, including fees. As the party gets closer, ticket prices will increase, so we recommend getting yours soon.
The concert is hosted by Ghost Ship Halloween, NPU Live, and Electroluxx. You can learn more and get tickets on the Ghost Palace website.
