Carpe Noctem Vampire Ball

Carpe Noctem Vampire Ball

Once again the annual Carpe Noctem Vampire Ball calls upon all Creatures of the Night to celebrate as the seasons turn and the veil between the living and the dead begins to thin.

This year we are inviting you to the wild, primal and mysterious depths of the Crimson Forest. Here is where the folklore of the Vampire is whispered in the trees and the moon reflects your true desires.

On the night you will be welcomed with a signature 'Bloodbath' cocktail as you enter into the dark forest of vampiric delights. The evening will be filled with spectacles of dark burlesque, music, drag, and bellydance by some of Melbourne's leading performers, as well as the hypnotic beats and revelry-inducing tunes from our incredible DJs.

This is an inclusive event that is created to celebrate the vast diversity of our Goth, Alternative, Queer, and Vampyre communities.

Join us at the Carpe Noctem Vampire Ball, where you can embrace your inner creature of the night and let your nocturnal desires come to life.
