The Best Halloween Raves in NYC 2016

Although festival season is coming to a close, EDM lovers around the world still have many opportunities to rave. New York may not rock the Insomniac events that SoCal gets, but we still party as hard when we get the chance.

Halloween in NYC is always a flop -- bars are overcrowded, parties get shut down, the list of grievances goes on. The exception to that is Halloween Raves; trust me on this, you'll forever crave the rave.

Here's a mini-guide of the top events to check out this month:

1. Pier of Fear: Above & Beyond (Friday, October 28th)

Held annually at the Pier 94 warehouse in Hell's Kitchen, Pier of Fear is nothing short of insane (in the best way possible). The event has had an impressive list of artists and DJs that have graced the stage: Last year PoF had Skrillex, Marshmallow, Kaskade, Armin van Buuren...the year before PoF hosted names like Tommy Trash, Adventure Club and Knife Party. In addition to the stacked setlist, the light-show is always top tier.

This year PoF welcomes legendary trance-trio Above & Beyond. Above & Beyond reigns as famed trance artists and have produced extensive studio albums, including We Are All We Need (2015), Group Therapy (2011) and Tri-State (2006). I saw them live on their 2015 tour at Electric Zoo and they were mind-blowing. Their music is touching and inspiring, yet catchy and addictive, the best of the best. Even better, Above & Beyond fans are some of the most dedicated, feel-good fans I have ever raved with. Listen here

2.RPM, Mr. Bugsly, Good Looks Collective: HI-LOWEEN (Friday, October 28th)

RPM has added more events to the mix with the Brooklyn Hangar venue joining the Halloween rave game. The first night has Hi-Lo, deep house producer Oliver Helden's side project/new alias. HI-LO's sound is darker and deeper, with "Renegade Mastah" propelling HI-LO into the spotlight. This is the first year that Brooklyn Warehouse is participating in Halloweekend, but RPM's amazing curation usually guarantees a good time.

3. RPM, Mr. Bugsly, Good Looks Collective: Galantis (Saturday, October 29th)

Brooklyn Warehouse is turning up two nights in a row, with Swedish duo Galantis finishing off the weekend. Galantis swept the EDM community with their singles "Runaway (U & I)" and "No Money".


Happy Raving!

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
