Dust off your capes, untangle your wigs, and unleash your wildest alter egos for the Beacon Halloween Costume Contest. We need full-blown theatrical energy. How It Works: You will be evaluated by our supreme and utterly outlandish, Judge Booty (sister of Judge Judy), who will be stalking the grounds to crown the most iconic character. To be entered in the competition, you just have to show up! Judge Booty will be walking around collecting info from the best of the best. The winner(s) will be announced at MIDNIGHT in the venue (but if the winner(s) are not present, it will be announced on Instagram.) A secret prize of pure decadence valued at $700. Bring the drama, bring the absurdity. Music by Birdhaus
