Get Ready For Wicked Manors - South Florida’s Largest Halloween Celebration Returns To Wilton Manors

This year’s Masquerade of Mayhem theme promises an unforgettable night of outrageous costumes, live entertainment, DJs, dancing and surprises around every corner. Presented by Hunters Nightclub Wilton Manors, the City of Wilton Manors, the Safety and Security Sponsor, and Visit Lauderdale, the 2026 Presenting Destination Sponsor, the celebration will transform Wilton Drive into South Florida’s largest Halloween celebration. The event has historically attracted more than 40,000 attendees from 48 states and 27 countries and territories, making Wicked Manors a destination event for Halloween revelers from around the world.

One of South Florida’s most anticipated Halloween traditions, Wicked Manors brings together residents, visitors and community supporters for an unforgettable night while raising funds for The Pride Center’s programs and services.

Always held on Halloween night, from 5:00 p.m. - 11:00 p.m., the historic street festival takes place along Wilton Drive between Northeast 21st Court and North Dixie Highway at Five Points, with traffic closed to create a safe, pedestrian-friendly experience for thousands of revelers. Guests can enjoy two entertainment hubs, the Main Stage and North Stage, featuring live performances, DJs, a lively and competitive costume contest and nonstop Halloween excitement throughout the evening.

Since its debut in 2007, Wicked Manors has transformed Wilton Drive into a one-of-a-kind Halloween experience where imagination takes center stage. Revelers showcase their creativity through elaborate costumes, compete for costume contest honors and come together for a night of entertainment and connection.

“Wicked Manors is more than South Florida’s largest Halloween celebration, it is a powerful expression of community, creativity and connection,” said Robert Boo, CEO of The Pride Center at Equality Park. “For nearly two decades, this unforgettable event has brought people together to celebrate authenticity and creativity while generating critical support for the programs and services that strengthen our community. We are incredibly grateful to our sponsors, partners, volunteers and attendees who make Wicked Manors such a meaningful and impactful tradition year after year.”

Proceeds from Wicked Manors help support The Pride Center’s vital programs and services, including community connection, advocacy, health and wellness resources and essential support services throughout South Florida. The event also generates proceeds for participating South Florida NonProfits through the four entry points and VIP experience, helping sustain health, human and social services and programs that serve individuals and families throughout the region.
