Summary

Have a fiendishly good time on the Halloween Masquerade Ball, the final cruise of the season.

What's included

This annual tradition features a three hour cruise, buffet dinner, entertainment, seasonal snacks and beverages, and the wildest costume contest in the Lakes Region.

What's not included

  • Alcoholic beverages
  • Soda and soft drinks

 

Tickets can be purchased online. They run at $73/person. Although you "choose seats" when you buy the tickets, people just move around checking out all the costumes or are dancing to the live music. Last time I went, there were two live bands, and each level had a bar. They usually have a costume contest as well.

We can meet in front of the ticket booth. Boarding starts at 5PM but the ship doesn't leave until 6PM. It is a 3 hour cruise. It can get pretty cold outside, so you should keep a jacket handy. The pier has an arcade if any of you want to check it out. As we get closer to the date, I'll let you know our costumes so you can identify us.
