Tickets for this year’s Hallowe’en Masked Ball in Helston have officially sold out.

Despite being priced at £50 a pop, they have flown out the door as always for this year’s Mexican “Day of the Dead” themed event.

This will take place at Flambards – to be known as Los Flambardos for the night – running from 6pm on November 1 through to 6am the following day.

Masked Ball director Kelvin Batt said: “This year’s Halloween Masked Ball, with its myriad of macabre venues, live performers, artworks and installations promises a heightened immersive experience for all that dare enter. We’ve really put everything that we got into this Masked Ball; be prepared for a rollercoaster ride into 13 twisted venues right through the night.”

The team will be transforming the park into a nocturnal playground featuring arenas inspired by the Island Of The Dolls, an Aztec Asylum, La Morgue, Voodoo Swamp, a Discoteca Del Diablo and a Carnival Of The Damned themed venue, complete with internationally renowned circus performers from Incandescence.

Billed to appear are a large number of top rated DJs and bands, plus, for the first time, the hair-raising Lords of Lightning have been added to the bill.
