KCRW’s killer Halloween bash Masquerade returns on Saturday, October 29, 2011  from 9pm to 2am at the Legendary Park Plaza with special  performances from LA’s own Dengue  Fever and Mariachi El  Bronx, as well as New York indie rockers Milagres and a DJ set from Portland  via Portugal RAC founder Andre Allen  Anjos.

Tickets to the event are selling fast and can  be purchased online here: http://www.kcrw.com/masquerade
Expect  dancefloor-filling sets from KCRW’s  own Music Director Jason Bentley  (Coachella, Pacific Festival,  HARD), Henry Rollins, Raul Campos, Jeremy Sole and nine other  KCRW DJs as well as a sea of  sounds, visuals and revelry unlike any other party in town. 

Attendees will experience  “Melting Rainbows”, a visual hallucination performed by  artist Aaron Axelrod, and  encounter the outlandish antics of vaudeville circus troupe Lucent Dossier throughout the  haunted hotel. L.A.'s finest storytellers will enchant with tales of  the macabre in the haunted bridal suite and five of our favorite  food trucks will hold court on the back lot: The Border Grill Truck, The Grilled Cheese  Truck, The Buttermilk Truck, Lake Street Creamery and Lardon Truck.

The costume  ball and dance party has sold out every year and was dubbed “best  party of the year” by LA  SnarkKCRW  credits our incredibly creative attendees - whose costumes are some  of the best you’ve ever seen – with making this a can’t-miss event  on a busy holiday weekend.

The event is 21 and over and all  tickets are general admission. Proceeds for the event support KCRW.
