Extravagance and Miami Beach’s Faena Hotel go hand-in-hand. Thus, it’s the perfect place to enjoy a memorable Halloween celebration as things get weird and wonderful in the hotel’s Living Room on Saturday, October 28th at 9 p.m. for the Faena Horror Picture Show hosted by legendary Miami drag queen, Adora. Inspired by the ‘70s cult classic, “The Rocky Horror Picture Show,” this all-night festivity transforms Faena’s intimate space into Dr. Frank-N-Furter’s famous castle, featuring a selection of artfully-crafted themed Bacardi cocktails, as well as live music from Blues, Soul and Rock & Roll group, Brothers of Other. Light up the dance floor with your best Time Warp steps and get into the spirit of your favorite characters with their iconic costumes, from Rocky’s gold lame and Columbia’s sparkly ensemble to Brad and Janet’s scandalous skivvies. When the night has ended, keep your outfits on hand and head back to Faena Miami Beach for a special screening of “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” on Halloween night to complete a fabulously strange celebration.

Guests ages 21+ welcomed. RSVP required to livingroom@faena.com. For table reservations, please email livingroom@faena.com or call +1 786 655 5600.
