Nights out in Preston

Halloween night out in Preston

Friends dressed up for a night in the club

For Halloween things to do in Preston, a night at Baluga on Church Street is a good shout because Halloween is the only time of year fancy dress is allowed through the door. Join the guest list early: the first 100 guests get into the club free between 9pm and 11pm.

Halloween things to do in Preston after dark

Most of the year, the dress code at Baluga is smart. At Halloween you can come in costume. That makes it the night to get the group outfits sorted, and the club's jungle theme in golds and greens makes a good backdrop for photos.

Opening times can change around holidays, so check @balugapreston on Instagram or facebook.com/balugabar for the Halloween weekend.

Lost in the music on the dance floor

Fancy dress: the basics

  • Fancy dress is allowed at Halloween only
  • The door team still makes the final decision on entry
  • Over 18s only, with Challenge 25
  • Bring a valid UK driving licence or UK passport, the physical one, not a photo
  • Keep your ID somewhere your costume has a pocket

Free entry on the guest list

The guest list is the easiest way into the club. The first 100 people on it get free entry between 9pm and 11pm and skip the queue. Sign-up is in advance only and opens for the next opening night, so put your name down in the days before.

Each person signs up individually with their own mobile number and email, and gets a confirmation text. Make sure everyone in the group does it, not just one person. Join on the club guest list page.

Start with the pre party

If the group wants a few drinks before the club, the £12 All Inclusive Pre Party runs 8pm to 10pm on Fridays and Saturdays. It covers entry for the whole night plus four drinks from the house menu. Groups of four or more pay £10 each. Latest entry on the offer is 9:30pm. See how the pre party works.

Booths for a Halloween group

VIP booths in the club start at £300 for the Standard booth: two bottles of Grey Goose, entry for up to eight, four mixer jugs and waitress service, with a sparkler bottle presentation. A booth gives the group a base for the night and somewhere to leave the props.
