Fetish & Fantasy Halloween

I have attended the event several years now, the red rock venue has been my favorite by far. If you want to get out and enjoy a fun night of costumes and share a great Halloween experience with others, I highly recommend this event. Everyone is always so warm and welcoming and you can be as outrageous as you want. This should be on your bucket list to attend just once, it s Vegas after all!

I've been to F&F 6 times- and now that we've left the Hard Rock, I miss it! Yes, it was tighter to move around there, but they had 2(!) DJ rooms, and The Joint is incredible, so if you weren't into one DJ, you could try another. That middle room was BORING! Yes, you can rest, but it was a WASTED space! I loved the Red Rock hotel, but jeez Ball Managers, bring back the bigger stage and more entertainment! I brought 7 friends and had to apologize to them about the lack of good entertainment onstage! What has changed in planning?! Damn. Not sure I'll go back next year... sigh.

Place and attractions were awesome. Loved all the shows, and the people.

The halloween ball was at the Hard Rock casino in vegas, and it was the perfect venue. There were three rooms; the main called the joint housed three levels mixed with GA and VIP tables. There was plenty of room for people to dance and watch the DJs, dancers, and acts that were performing on the main stage. Once you left the floor area it did become crowded around the bar and bathrooms, but what do you expect? After that you could go to the next room that was filled with outrageous vendors and demonstrations of the fetish part of the party. This room was smaller but provided tables to sit at if you needed a break from the other two rooms. The final room was another smaller dance area with a DJ. Both DJ areas had lasers and light shows going on during their performance. It was awesome!!! Just the amount of people and the awesome costumes provided for an excellent night. Everyone just wanted to have a good time and enjoy Halloween. The party offers things for everyone and they did that with their tickets to. You can pick from GA, VIP and late arrival. I think next time I would do VIP because I like the idea of having a table to sit at even if it for a little bit. The vibe and drinks were good, and it was so much fun. This party will be unlike any party you have been to before so go to the party's facebook and check out what other people have to say & look at their pictures! It was an amazing time and I would go every Halloween!

My friends and I had such a wild and crazy night! It was amazing to see so many people in fun and creative costumes all having such a great time in one place. It did not seem like there were over 6,000 people at the event because everything was laid out so well. We saw stilt walkers, amazing pole dancers, fire acts and awesome music! Don't know where else you can see all this in one night. It was totally worth the money and I definently want to go again next year!

IF YOU EVER GO TO ONE HALLOWEEN PARTY IN VEGAS, THIS HAS TO BE THE ONE!

After reading all the things about this being one of the events to go to before you die and such, I had high hopes. Unfortunately, I was somewhat disappointed. It wasn't as risque as I was hoping for. I mean, the event is hosted in vegas under the name fantasy and fetish, it should be risque. The performances on the stage were pretty impressive, but during breaks, which were often, the music was horrible, definitely nothing worth dancing to. To give you an idea, there was one house music sort of song that seemed to drone on forever with the same beat repeating "Barbara. Barbara. Streisand." over and over. Even the half naked raver partier next to our group had trouble turning that song into anything worthy of his glow stick twirling. The lines for drinks took forever to get through. At one point I timed a shorter line, behind about 6 people at about 40 minutes. Seriously, it shouldn't take that long. Get faster bartenders. And if you're going to serve weak long islands in small cups, they better not be $15. Fellow partiers all seemed to take great effort in their costumes for the most part, which was probably one of the best things about the event. People were very creative and it was a pleasure seeing all the varying creativity that was put into their costumes.

This event was a blast. We were worried about waiting in long lines, but that was not the case. We walked straight in and getting drinks was no problem. The crowd was great and the costumes were amazing. There were even seats up top to sit in if you got tired of standing in heels all night. I would definitely go again.

it was alright. I had a good time... was definitely nice and drunk and there were plenty of hot chicks roaming around but I was expecting much more.

I had a blast at this halloween party and there were lots of crazy freaky people everywhere! AWESOME! its a must go once in your life time kind of thing!

Busy- not as many different areas as we were hoping to see. Fetish room was amazing- unlike anything we have seen on display. DJ with rave music was decent, but variety of music would have been appreciated.

It was like going to a high school dance...Very over priced for tickets. Would never go again...The Travel Channel should not recommend that Halloween Ball.

Prepare yourself before you go - you could see anything! We went later in the evening, about 1:00am, and I expeccted there to be a lot more people. The Joint is a great venue, but there was plenty of room to move around. Music was good, but mostly house music was spun. The Fetish room was NOT for me, but there were many people enjoying the 'events'.

The costumes were incredible and the acts on stage even better.

Feast for the eyes! Very erotic and exciting. Will go again. Please promote more PAINTED skin.

This ticket cost me just over $100...was expecting something WAY better than what my friends and I got. Lots of couples, not a lot of singles. Constant house music by a DJ that was not that good...he kept yelling at the crowd to "MAKE SOME F#%KING NOISE!" which if you have to yell that every 3minutes, clearly it is not the crowd that is the issue. The performers on stage were cool, but got a little old after a while. Anyways, this thing was just not that good, and cost way too much money.

Freaky fun for a while, then it sets in that I paid full concert price for bad service, overcrowded bars and out of date music- try harder or reduce the tix price OK?

The Fetish & Fantasy ball is WAY overrated. Not at all what we expected and overall STRANGE. Would not waste my money again.

This was the best Halloween party in Vegas by far! Lots of room for all to dance, great shows and awesome music. Ends exactly at 4. I just wish it lasted a couple more hours.

The show was amazing, the costumes were fun and creative, the music was off the chain! Id go every year if I could!! Drinks were also reasonable for Vegas, so thank you for that! Loved the light show as well. Plenty of room and not crouched for space.

We had a great time! Wish the lines were not so long to get a drink. They would not let us in at the after party. said we were too scantily clad! What? You have an after party following a fetish and fantasy ball and we were not wearing enough? I m confused. anyway it really was a great event!

Very fun. Very sexy. Nice eletronic music. But there were not 6000 people there as advertise some places.

My friends and I had a great time! Good venue and crowd. Some amazing costumes. Not much of a fetish theme, more so costume/fantasy ball. Could use a much better fetish area or room. Stage performances were great - we enjoyed them.

If you have been to Burning Man you will be disappointed. Not much fetish wear. Not many serious costumers. Lots of packaged costumes, not much creativity. Mostly suburban folks from So Cal. Lots of sexy girl cosumes like Alice, Dorothy, Coyote Ugly, Pussy Cat Dolls. Lots of trim bodies, pretty girls. Mostly typical guys in standard costumes, with a few beautiful scantily clad male bodies. Come on, guys, your girlfriend is wearing two 6 inch strips of spandex, and you are wearing a Fred Flintstone sack over your body? If you wear a fabulous costume, people will look at you, buy you will rarely get a "Nice costume" comment. This is a huge contrast from the other Halloween parties that I attended. My costume started hundreds of conversations at other events, but in this one people wanted to be spectators. I think this event is advertized as a place to go to see sexy costumes, so people just looked and took photos of me. The event takes place in multiple rooms. The movement from one room to another was difficult and the event was poorly layed out. Narrow halls for the amount of people, and doorways were crowded. No logical flow pattern. The Joint was the most interesting room, with DJs and acrobatic performers. Some of the acrobats were very good Cirque type performances. Most DJs were local and had limited excitement. Another room was full of large tables and a stage with limited entertainment. Lots of people sitting, looking bored. Some vending booths, but nothing fun to look at. Very poor shopping experience. It could be fun it this room was full of booths selling fetish wear, costume components, sex toys, bondage gear, music and other fun stuff. Poor traffic flow, You can see more sexy costumes in any casino that has a costume contest, and not have to push your way through crowds in narrow halls.

It was nothing I expected it was 1000 degrees in there. And super dirty. And very boring the crowed was very low class as well. I could have found a ton of things to do for free much better than that

I have never been to one of these events however after viewing the video clips from last year, I had much higher expectations for entertainment, decorations, etc.

Amazing, simply amazing. Maxim magazine was right. Its definitely a top ten party to go to before u die

No comparison the the San Francisco Exotic Erotic ball. DJ and music were BORING, the people attending were not exceptionally dressed. I stayed for four very boring hours from 10-1, then bailed. NOT WORTH HALF THE TICKET PRICE. I saw better costumes and definitely better DJ and music at TAO in the Venetian where I escaped to after I left the F&F ball. I will never attend again. Save your money.

I was expecting to go to a halloween party, not a rave. Also, I'm partying in Vegas and I would expect the bar to at least have Patron. No Patron, no Hennessey, no Grey goose... seriously?!

This is our 4th year going. As always we had an amazing time.

Waste of time and money Very expensive for this kind of party. The performance did ok job. The expo show was poor. Will never go to this venue again , NOT even for free

I would def recommend this event, and return if I have opportunity. I gave four start because I'm thinking to get 5 it would just have to be completely perfect in just about all ways possible. So I hope that helps you understand my rating. If you can get tickets early in order to pay less, if you know for sure that you're going, it is def worth it. Arriving to the event early was nice because the line got rediculous later. I loved that everyone was pretty awesome about putting forth good effort in creating a reasonable costume, instead of a bunch of slackers that wanted to go to a party half-assing it. Music and little performances was good. And having different rooms to wonder in and out of was good. Light show and lasers was cool too. Didn't even get but one or two drinks the whole time because, as with anywhere, drinks are pricey. After about 4 hours I had my fill, but it all kept me pretty well entertained for a solid chunk of time.

We had a great time. Lots of things going on. Will definitely go back next Halloween.

My first time. Lots of amazing costumes, outfits, displays and fun people. I will probably go back next year.

WOW! I was very pleased with the event. It was one of the best times I have ever had in Vegas. I would definitely recommend this wild and crazy party!

This was my third time going..The Hard Rock was a great venue, spacious, good service. Didn't have to wait long for drinks. Drink prices were high, but I expected that. The entertainment was great with some unique acts, good DJ's. The best was the crowd. Everyone we met, or ran into, or asked to take pictures with were having as much fun, if not more, than we were. IT was a good mix of the Fetish/Sexy dress with some very creative Halloween costumes. Get your tickets early and save $$.

This year wasn't very fun at F&F. Most of the people seemed a bit older and the price of tickets were a joke. Won't be going back next year unless ticket prices are cheaper. NOT WORTH IT AT ALL.

This was soooo much fun and worth every penny. I will for sure go again!! This is an event you must go to at least once.

Do you love Las Vegas? Do you love Halloween? Do you love to be open and free to whom you want to be? Fetish & Fantasy Halloween is the place for you. This was hands down the best halloween ball I've ever been to. Plus it's in Las Vegas. You cannot ask for anything more.

The costumes were amazing, everyone was cool to talk with. Great times!

I loved the event. I had a great time. I thought there would be a little more entertainment other than dancers. Pretty disappointed with the zombie room and it would be nice to offer some sort of snacks for sale. People get hungry. But, the music was great. Plenty of room to move around. I like having different rooms to move around to. Overall, I would hands down go again.

The best time ever. I will be going next yr and taking a couple of friends with me!

Went 3 of the last 4 years (skipped the year it was at the South Point). Already got my tickets for this year. So glad it's back at the Hard Rock. The costumes are crazy and the performers are insane. All the clubs in Vegas are copying the format now, but the Fantasy Ball always seems to have the coolest, freakiest of them all. Always see something I've never seen before and my fiancé really enjoys getting in the spirit as well (which is always good :) She likes it cause it's not just all about eye candy for the guys, there's something for everyone and something going on everywhere you turn. Since it's been at the Hard Rock, it's been getting better every year.

Fetish & Fantasy is a must see! Biggest Halloween ball ever seen. The multiple rooms is exciting and covers every angle of a good bash!

Anyone thats been to the new Joint already knows that its like being in a big cement box, absolutely not great during a concert and especially horrible during an event like this. The clientele was fabulous, costumes were anywhere from extreme to so so, but with nowhere at all, not even a ledge to sit on, it forced a lot of the costumed to look for other events. The tables are in a separate room so they don't get to take part in the party, the people in the big room had to keep moving because there just isn't anything else other than to stand in a big open room, hallway or in the never ending search for some place other than the restroom to sit. This was a fun event everyone looked forward to all year, but since it's been at Hard Rock in The Joint I know many who no longer attend and other venues are becoming more popular. I hope they will move the Fetish and Fantasy to a more customer friendly venue in the future.

Lots of venue variety, intersting people and things to see. Long bar line but when does that not happen in Vegas?

Something for everyone. Had a wonderful time. Great music and a great atmosphere.

It wasn't that freaky. You can find the same stuff on the street, girls all slutted up and guys trying to talk to them. No real craziness going on. I'd save your $100 and buy drinks somewhere else. I'll chalk it up to an experience but I wouldn't go again.

We paid to get into the VIP area expecting more, we expected couches to sit on and more of an open area. The lines were not long for drinks, which we liked. The DJ was OK - I expected more than what I got from all the reviews and all the hype. Move it to a new venue and make the VIP area more of a lounge with the view to the dance floor.

Costumes were great as well as the last room with the Zoo. Music was enjoyable

Definately not worth it. Too expensive to not include any drinks. And didn't even have any famous performers! Go to one of the other hotel clubs instead!

Was great. Music was loud and the costumes were fantastic. And the performers were outrageous. Wish we had known where the fetish demos were earlier, though.

Best Halloween ever!! It was well done but was hoping for a more spooky setting

the theme was ok. they should have different types of music. good event but not worth the 100$

The party was awesome! It was divided into three ballrooms but they probably could have gotten away with two since there wasn't much happening in one of them. The show was good, and everyones costumes were awesome. My main complaint is that there werent enough bars so the wait to get a drink was a little but long.

The event was fun. We understand the economy is bad so there were exceptions, that being said there were a lot of people not in costume or very poor costumes. It was the fetish and fantasy ball after all somebody with a red rubber clown nose on shouldn't have been let in. The bad part is it will be more diluted as time goes on unless dress codes are enforced. That being said there were a lot of great costumes there and we did have a fun time

After reading that travel magazine had rated this event of the top 10 in the world I thought it would be a guaranteed good time. Unfortunately, it was nothing what I expected. It was nothing more than a huge costume party with little flare. No variety in music at all and the venue was cluttered and hard to get around.

There was a lot of people/costumes to take in. Drinks were expensive, but that was to be expected. A lot of people watching, with good music and intense atmosphere. A must see for anyone in Vegas during Halloween.

I think the ball has jumped the shark. The ball was not worth attending. It seemed like they just did not care. There were none of the cool decorations that they have had in other years. There was no energy. It was totally white bread. It seemed like a middle school PTA Halloween party. The entertainment was ok but we can get that any weekend in Las Vegas. The better strategy for Halloween weekend is to just hit the various clubs around town and save the money. I have talked to others who feel the same way. I also noticed that lots of the cool people who there last year skipped it this year. Maybe they knew in advance.
