Spooky fun awaits: Your guide to events happening on Halloween in Pembroke Pines
Halloween is here, and there’s no need to fear you’ll be without a costume contest, candy giveaway or celebration to ring in the festivities.
Pembroke Pines has been partying all week long and plans to finish spooky season strong.
What’s up the city’s sleeve? A vintage car meet-up, a haunted “blackout” party and more.
Here’s what’s happening Friday:
Shinya Spooky Anime Night
Cosplayers and anime lovers are invited to a night of “fun, food and fandom” at Baoshi Food Hall + Bar. Attendees can enjoy Asian-inspired bites from the hall’s five eateries, bar and market, and shop from a “variety of nerdy vendors” invited just for the event. Other perks include a Labubu raffle, Pokémon trading, a live DJ performance and more. Admission is free with registration.
