FearFest 2025 is more than a Halloween event

it’s a story we tell together.
From playful frights to powerful rites, this year’s festival explores the magic of

masks: how we hide, reveal, and transform.

2025 Theme: MASKERADE

This year, we ask: What’s behind the mask?
From folklore to drag, ritual to rave, masks have long helped us become who we are — or who we’re afraid to be.

We invite you to create, wear, and share your own story-mask. Join the parade. Join the procession. Join the transformation.

Three people wearing Halloween masks: one with a white skull mask decorated with red and green floral designs, one with an orange pumpkin mask with a carved face, and one with a ghost face mask, standing outdoors at night with a streetlamp in the background.
