Soirée Obscura (noun):

1. A mysterious and elegant evening gathering held on the threshold of darkness and dream.
2. A curated night of art, haunted glamour, eerie music, and decadent indulgence, where guests arrive as beautifully dressed creatures of the darkness.

Friday 31 October | 7PM | Qirkz

On the final night of October, Halloween, the veil thins and Soirée Obscura is your invitation to cross into the half-lit world beyond — a liminal space where ghosts sip cocktails, ghouls create art by candlelight, and villains pose for portraits in velvet and smoke.

This is not a party or an art class. This is an apparition.

A one-night salon of eerie elegance and strange beauty, where nothing is quite what it seems.

As the lights dim, guests will be drawn into a living dream:

🎨 Art stations that invite you to create something beautifully unsettling. Ink blot pressings and your choice of creepy, filthy or glamorous art project to paint and sip at your own pace
📸 A photographer capturing candid moments and striking group portraits
🎥 Flickering film scenes of cabaret, horror, and forgotten dreams
🎶 Music that hums like a strange lullaby in the dark
🍷 Potions and tasty morsels: The bar will be open and you are welcome to purchase drinks, coffee or food from a special menu delicious enough to make even ghosts linger a little longer.

🕯️ The Dress Code
Your entry to this event requires dressing in your own unique interpretations of spooky glamour

Evoke the spirits of the other world with your most creative and unique outfit.
Ghosts, ghouls, zombies, vampires and beautiful dead things.. creatures of the night and villains in plain sight.
Let your outfit tell a story that can not be spoken aloud.
Let it glimmer. Let it haunt. Be unforgettable.
This is a night for those who dress with intention — who understand that glamour is a spell, and costume is an art.
If you're not sure whether it's too much… it's probably just enough.
