If you don’t know what Scarendipity is, since 2005 we have thrown an event celebrating Halloween that is somewhere between a house party on steroids and a private festival.

Frequently Asked Questions…

Who’s invited?

This costume party is for our friends and **YOUR FRIENDS**!
We are NOT sending individual invitations or doing RSVP. This is not a public event, rather it is a unique social experience designed to bring friends together with our friends’ friends.
BRING A GROUP OF YOUR FAVORITE PEOPLE… or just plan to meet some more of ours, and undoubtedly some you didn’t know we knew!

Where do I park?

Parking can be something of a chore so carpool, arrive early, cab it, go in on a shuttle van service with others, etc. We will have several security personnel patrolling the streets, but it is always wise to use the buddy system late at night and leave valuables out of your car.

Will there be food?

You bet! Details to come, check back on the Scarendipity Facebook page for updates…

I have more questions. Who do I contact?

Be sure to check the Scarendipity Facebook page and Facebook event page for regular updates – most if not all of the information you need will be right there. Otherwise, you can send your questions to scarendipity@gmail.com, and we’ll try to get back to you as soon as possible.

Is this an all-ages event?

Sorry, this is a 21-and-over event.

The donation is a bit rich for my blood – how can I still participate?

We are always in need of volunteers to help set up, tear down, clean up afterwards, and help with odd jobs the day of the party. Email us at scarendipity@gmail.com if you want to help!

We look forward to celebrating with you!
