Escape Psycho Circus will return to Southern California on Halloween Weekend next year with another fantastic edition filled with frightful production and more.
The dust has finally settled from this year’s edition of Escape Halloween, and it was another fantastic experience for dance music lovers in Southern California. Not only did Insomniac pull out all the stops with production elements and a top-tier lineup, but they expanded the layout and brought forth some added surprises like a Boiler Room stage takeover and a full-sound Danse Macabre stage in Voodoo Village.
Today, as attendees continue to bask in the spooky sights and sounds they experienced over the weekend, Insomniac has delivered the dates and initial info for what’s to come in 2025. Escape will return to the NOS Events Center next year on Halloween Weekend (October 31-November 1), and tickets for the upcoming edition will go on sale on October 31. Interestingly, next year’s edition is dubbed Escape Psycho Circus, meaning that theme will return to the forefront for the first time since 2019.
Previous iterations bearing the Psycho Circus branding have focused on the chaotic carnival-like atmosphere, leaving one to wonder what surprises Insomniac will have in store. Additionally, the most recent iteration of the festival was the last time that The Grimm stage design would appear, meaning that there will be a fresh main stage design for 2025 that’s sure to be a show-stopper.
The lineup reveal for Escape Psycho Circus is still far off, but those who are wondering what sounds might be booming through its speakers can look at this year’s edition for inspiration. Artists ranging from Meduza and Martin Garrix to Adventure Club and Ben Nicky took the stage, showcasing the diversity that this spooktacular festival typically offers.
