33rd Freaker's Ball Rocks the House at MontBleu Oct. 29

Whether it’s the 16 ft. clown, Lady Gaga lookalikes, entire Addams Family, Tricky Dick Nixon, a deck of playing cards, a human lobster bib or a zombified super hero, there's only one place at South Tahoe to see the outrageous unveil itself through costume and it could be worth a $10,000 in contest prizes.

The 33rd annual Freaker’s Ball, Tahoe’s longest running Halloween party gets its groove going Saturday, Oct. 29, at MontBleu Resort Casino & Spa with a $10,000 costume contest purse and an estimated 2,500 party-goers.

The Freaker's Ball has earned its longevity stripes by raising the bar with three parties in one setting that showcases the clever and surreal as revelers create their own flare for the evening festivities, MontBleu notes in a media release.

Freaker’s festivities will be at Blu nightclub, Opal Ultra Lounge and the MontBleu Convention Center and include body painting, go-go dancers, and drink specials. Live music from Pop Fiction will rock the debauchery into the dark good night. Get access to all three venues at one price now before they sell out fast.

Meanwhile, the party will start early when GAME: The R.E.D. Tour arrives at MontBleu Theatre on Friday, Oct. 28. GAME (formerly The Game) went from Gangsta to recharged West Coast hip hop with the Cali-themed classic “The Documentary” which earned him a No. 1 hit single, album and $20 million-dollar film role. Special guest include Mic Rob and DJ Mr Wilson & Quette Daddie.

MontBleu has an enviable entertainment line-up of contemporary artists through November and December – just in time for the ski and snowboard season.
