Michael Jackson Halloween Rave at Studio 54

Halloween weekend in Los Angeles has a lot of costume parties, but few commit to a theme as hard as this one. The Michael Jackson Halloween Rave at Studio 54 takes the King of Pop's catalog, the zombie-dance spooky season staples included, and pushes it onto a dance floor built for late-night energy. It is one of the more distinctive raves in Los Angeles this October, and it lands on a Saturday.

When: Saturday, October 17, 2026, 9:00 PM to 1:00 AM Where: Globe Theatre Los Angeles, 740 South Broadway, Los Angeles, CA 90014 Tickets: $17.85 to $215.26 on Eventbrite

What to expect

The flyer leans into horror-movie red and black, with undead-style illustrations framing the words "King of Pop Rave." Pair that with the Studio 54 name and you get the idea: disco-era glamour meets a Halloween costume party, set to Michael Jackson hits and the dance music that grew up around them. The listing does not publish a lineup, so treat it as a themed night rather than a headliner show, and check the ticket page for any updates before you go.

Dress is part of the fun. Think sequined jackets, a single glove, red leather, fedoras, or full zombie makeup. Studio 54 is also a nod to glitter and mirrorball style, so a disco look fits just as well as a monster one.

Tickets and price

Prices on the ticket page range from $17.85 up to $215.26, which usually means a spread of general admission tiers and higher-priced options. Early tiers tend to sell first on a Halloween weekend, so if you plan to go, buy ahead instead of counting on the door.

Getting there

Globe Theatre sits on South Broadway in the historic theater district of downtown. If you want a night out without a car, this is a good pick: the Metro B and D lines stop at Pershing Square and 7th Street/Metro Center, both a short walk away. Driving is possible, but downtown garages fill up on event nights and rideshare drop-offs along Broadway can back up near closing time, so give yourself extra time on both ends.

The doors-to-close window runs to 1:00 AM, so plan your ride home ahead of time.

Making a night of it

Downtown has plenty of late dinner options within a few blocks, and the Broadway theater facades make good backdrops for costume photos before you head in. If you are building a Halloween weekend, this works nicely as the Saturday night anchor, with daytime plans left open.
