19+ event.
On Saturday January 25th, 2025 from 9pm-1am come and celebrate our 12 year anniversary with one of our most popular themes, Dark Masquerade! It's your call what to wear but the them will be Kinky as we taking over the ballroom on the 3rd floor of the Best Western Plus, Chocolate Lake Hotel Halifax (250 St Margarets Bay Rd, Halifax NS).
When it comes to eye masks, scary, sexy or kinky it's your call on which to wear but The ballroom at the Chocolate Lake Hotel is going to be filled with masks and mystery!
While wearing a mask is of course optional we will have some masks for sale at the venue for those who don't have one but would like to participate. They are $5 each and come in a variety of colours, more than what's even displayed here: www.NightshadeHalifax.com/Masks.html
Now although there is no dress code, it is strongly suggested that you dress in theme or some type of alternative wear is suggested. If you don't know what to wear then black clothing is strongly suggested but again try to dress in something you would consider sexy and edgy. Dress sexy and cool, cause it does get hot and sweaty in there. Due to the nature of the venue, public decency rules do apply.
Drink menus will be listed when we receive that information from the hotel but you can imagine it will include all of your standard and brand name beverages. Cash only bar. The hotel has an ATM in the lobby but we have emptied it at every Nightshade event so come prepared! Please drink responsibly.
Many of parties have Sold Out weeks before each event so buy early or risk missing out! Tickets are available for only $25+tax and purchases can be made online through our website.
Coat check service will be $3 for the night which includes in and out privileges for one hanger of clothes and/or one bag. There will be a self-coat check area but this will be not be monitored and is at use at your own risk.
We will be adhering to all government regulations at our Nightshade events. In addition extra cleaning procedures will be put into place for both the venue and for our own equipment. Hand sanitizer stations will be readily available as well of course there is plenty soap and water in the washrooms. Valid government identification (19+) is required to gain entry.
If you are sick please stay home! We have done away with our regular 'no refunds' policy and replaced it with a full credit of your ticket price. If you inform us that you will not be in attendance prior to us opening the doors at 9pm than we will issue you a full credit for one of our future events. Please check with the hotel for their cancellation policies.
If for any reason we are forced to reduce capacity or cancel this event, causing you to not be able to attend then you will be issued a full credit of your ticket price for one of our future events. You may also purchase optional Cancellation Insurance for $1 per ticket which would see the full price of your ticket ($25 ticket or $28 ticket price w/coatcheck) refunded to you if you can not attend the event for any reason, so long as you contact us about the cancellation prior to the start of the event.
The Nightshade dance floor will be a flood of bodies as we introduce to our stage, for the first time ever at Nightshade: DJ Eddie Hedfones! Eddie Hedfones has been in love with dance music from a very young age, influenced by the sounds of 70s disco, 80s synth pop, 90s dance music, through to contemporary underground house and techno. Eddie was the Saturday night resident at Reflections Cabaret in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada from 2003-2016 playing mostly top 40 remixes, but his true passion lies in the underground. You can check him out here: https://www.facebook.com/DJEddieHedfones
There will be some hardcore equipment brought in for those who know how to use it. For everyone's safety it will be well lit and monitored throughout the night by our DMs.
This is a no camera event with the exception of event photographers, please message to apply to shoot for the event.
Hotel rooms for the Nightshade Dark Masquerade event are at a special rate of $149 but only until Friday January 10th, 2025! To reserve a room in our block you must call and say you are with the group rate Masquerade.
Booking with our Block is ideal as your room will be surround by other people attending the party. It will thus be easier to connect with others and you will receive fewer noise complaints than if you were to book a room elsewhere in the hotel.
