Dead Not Alive Halloween 2016 – their best party yet?

halloween hong kong hk 2016 dead not alive party

The annual Dead Not Alive party took Hong Kong’s Halloween celebrations to an international level and came out of nowhere to become the city’s best. Now in its ninth year, the party is moving into perhaps its greatest location yet, along with its strongest musical line-up ever.

Hullett House is a huge old Colonial building hidden away on a hilltop right in the middle of Tsim Sha Tsui. Located at 2A Canton Road, it’s directly above the 1881 Heritage development, and close to Harbour City.

The massive building is unlike any of the other remaining Colonial mansions in Hong Kong. Formerly serving as Marine Police Headquarters, its been converted into a luxury hotel with multiple restaurants and bars. At the center is a massive outdoor courtyard which will host a stage, in addition to three different rooms with DJs.

A multi-room adventure, all under one roof

The very best parties often allow you to explore, and the sprawling Hullett House features numerous rooms to wander through.

On the night of the party there will be assorted areas to check out: a front room, a large retro bar, a room with a VR zombie game, a side room featuring a bar with jail cells, a large courtyard with the main stage, the “tea” room, and a back room with go-go dancers.

Have a look at one of the promo videos to get a feel for Hullett House and the potential spooky atmosphere on Halloween.

Strong music lineup!

In addition to the stellar location, the music lineup includes the first ever performance in Hong Kong by Japanese Hip Hop duo M-Flo, and a top-notch selection of DJs from around the world and Hong Kong.

Tedman aka Junkie T is the founder of The Living Discoheads and lead singer of the band Ni.Ne.Mo. He’s a musical powerhouse with excellent taste, and an indie promoter who has brought amazing acts like machinedrum to Hong Kong.

Kevin Poon

Full time entrepreneur and hustler, Kevin Poon, is co-founder of CLOT, and the man behind Elephant Grounds and several other cool new businesses in the city. Though not a pro DJ, Kevin has up-to-the-minute exclusives that no one else in the city has when it comes to what’s hot in the U.S. The other thing we like about Kevin is that he’s not afraid to play songs he loves. Too often in H.K., DJs keep things safe, and don’t depart from well-known songs. None of the DJs in this line-up are shy when it comes to their sets.

Nat King Soul

Nat King Soul rounds out the team. He’s worked with everyone from Karl Lagerfeld and Chanel to opening up in concert for De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest and The Pharcyde in the 90’s! He regularly contributes to major fashion shows as a music consultant and has worked with a who’s who of top brands and international art galleries. You can be sure that he has a bag of Halloween treats ready for the audience.

These are some of the biggest, most influential names in the city and will attract a creative, cool, and in-the-know crowd. The venue alone is a reason to check out this party, but with a line-up like this, there aren’t any other parties that even come close.

Remember that costumes are mandatory at the Dead Not Alive party. Don’t show up without one, or you won’t get in! Another thing to consider is that the party literally sells out each year, so we recommend getting your tickets ASAP. Not only are they cheaper, but you can make sure you get in.

Early Bird tickets are available until October 20th. Don’t miss the deadline and have to pay more.

Tickets come in various packages and you can purchase them directly from Alive Not Dead’s site.

Highly recommended!
