Halloween is officially around the corner people, and we certainly hope you’ve already decided on what you’ll be wearing. One thing for sure is, even though you may not know what you’ll be doing on Halloween night, we’re here to help you out and give you the options you need to create your own Halloween night agenda. The majority of clubs and bars hosting an event on Halloween night, so we scoured through each event and have chosen what we believe are the top Halloween weekend parties are in Miami. If you don’t have any plans just yet, we suggest checking one of these out, and we guarantee you’ll have a memorable holiday this year.

Top Halloween Party in Miami
Event: Steve Aoki
Venue: Set
Date: Thursday, Oct. 29th

Who says you have to wait until the weekend to get the party started on Halloween. Sure, the primary focus of the holiday is set for Saturday, the 31st, however, everyone knows that the weekend starts on a Thursday night. Steve Aoki will be at SET delivering all the sound and making up for his absence during what was set to be a big Labor Day weekend performance there. Although he has a younger crowd, SET has their usual crowd so expect the place to be packed. It will be kind of funny to see a lot of hipster kids get denied at the door. SET doesn’t play around and you should always bring your A game.

Top Halloween Party in Miami
Event: Steve Lawler
Venue: Gryphon
Date: Thursday, Oct. 29th

This is definitely one of the most anticipated events of Halloween weekend. Not only is Gryphon a great club, but when they bring in one of the biggest names in electronic dance music, expect this place and this party to be off the wall! The one and only Steve Lawler will be in town as part of his North American tour. We’re a bit surprised that he didn’t opt for the usual South Beach or downtown Miami venue, but it’s a nice change of pace for him and the crowd that attends this party would have been the same faces regardless of the venue.

Top Halloween Party in Miami
Event: Fatal Attraction
Venue: Club 50
Date: Friday, Oct. 30th

When one of the best hotels in the city throws a party, you bet your ass it’ll be on our list of Top Halloween parties in Miami. Club 50 has the best view in the city, and this Halloween they’ll be hosting ‘Fatal Attraction,’ where their guests are expected to be decked out in ghoulish attire. The party kicks off at 8 p.m. and there will be complimentary cocktails provided until 10 p.m., so if you do decide to go, make sure to get there early and get your money’s worth at the bar, and remember, be sure to be dressed to kill.

Top Halloween Party in Miami
Event: Boris Halloween Midnight Terrace Marathon
Venue: Space
Date: Saturday, Oct. 31st

You definitely should of expected Club Space to be on our list, after all, where else can you dance until the sun comes up on downtown Miami? Well, maybe Nocturnal, but that place can’t top Club Space. For Halloween they’ll be bringing in Boris to serve up all the sound to the dressed up crowd. Boris’ sound goes really well at Space, so expect this to be yet another sold-out event at Club Space. Yes you may have to wait in line for a while to get in, especially on this night, but it’s all well worth it.

Top Halloween Party in Miami
Event: Tera Patrick
Venue: Cameo
Date: Saturday, Oct. 31st

If there’s one individual that we here at CoolJunkie are big fans of, it has to be Tera Patrick. This sexy lady hosts parties across the nation at some of the biggest nightclubs in the world, and when it came time for Halloween, it was Miami’s turn to have Tera Patrick in town. She’ll be hosting the Halloween festivities at the grand reopening of Cameo in South Beach. The nightclub was closed a few months ago, only to be bought up by the infamous Opium Group, adding yet another successful venue to their growing empire. This party will be slammed pack with fans of the venue and of the actress.

Top Halloween Party in Miami
Event: Thriller In Coconut Grove
Venue: Mayfair Promenade
Date: Saturday, Oct. 31st

This party certainly has high expectations for itself, already claiming that it’s going to be the greatest costume party in the history of Coconut Grove. That’s a tall order, but we’ll go ahead and give them credit for have the b#@$s to label itself before the event actually happens. We have to say though, we’re pretty excited about this event. Coconut Grove is definitely one of the most popular areas in Miami to spend Halloween, and this party will definitely pack out with some of the craziest personalities decked out. We recommend checking this party out.

Top Halloween Party in Miami
Event: Jonathan Peters
Venue: Gryphon
Date: Saturday, Oct. 31st

It’s fair to say that Jonathan Peters is as big in South Florida as he is in New Jersey. That’s right people, the man himself will be back in South Florida and playing Gryphon nightclub on Halloween night. This guy always plays to a packed venue, and this night is going to be no exception. If you’re not a fan of his music, remember, you can always check out Pangaea next door, however, chances are the energy level at that venue won’t be as crazy as it will be here. Give JP a try for an hour, if it doesn’t work for you then move on to the next party. It’s Halloween, and parties are limitless!!!
