Were you planning to spend Halloween dressed as a pumpkin under a blanket, with a scary movie and some sweets that don’t belong to you? Lovely plan… but a little too tame for Halloween! (Well, let’s be honest, raiding the kids’ candy stash sounds pretty tempting to us too 🤫😈🍬)
This year, we’re taking you on 8 deliciously spooky adventures in Luxembourg and Moselle. Between the screams, fits of laughter and encounters with creatures that are not exactly recommendable, you may not make it home unscathed… but you’ll have some incredible stories to tell!
Come on, join us! Follow the skeleton… and try not to crush the pumpkin! 💀🎃

Warning, experience reserved for those over 18 and not recommended for the faint-hearted! Icy fingers brushing against your skin, whispers in the dark and ominous shadows… From the pool to the bar, passing by the loungers, every nook and cranny transforms into a horror scene.

Once there, choose your camp between techno, hardgroove, hardtechno and deep house. Bars and snacks will be available to recharge your batteries until sunrise.
