Halloween Purge

Halloween Purge takes over Circle Lincoln on Thursday 29 October, from 11:00pm to 3:00am. It's billed as Lincoln's biggest Halloween event, and it's a one-night-only thing: the rules go out the window and the masks come out. It's also the official move-in party and a Freshers Carnival, so it's as much about the start of term as it is about the date.

The music is split across three distinct mashups. You'll get House, Tech, and Disco, then a shift into sinister RnB, Hip Hop, and the cheesier pop classics and throwbacks that usually come out when the night really gets going. Alongside that is 'The Purge Experience'—immersive chaos and eerie visuals throughout the venue.

There's a dress code to get into: they're asking people to come as rebels, villains or masked figures. If you put enough effort in, there's a 'Best Dressed' award that gets you exclusive VIP treatment and a sinister surprise. It's a strictly 18+ night, and last entry is 23:30, so don't leave it too late if you're coming from across town.

Tickets run from £5.99 to £14.29. If you're a student and don't end up getting into your preferred university, they'll give you a full refund, or you can transfer the ticket to another city. Circle Lincoln is at 18 Silver St, Lincoln LN2 1EW.
