Every Halloween, New Orleans becomes one of the country’s premier destinations for costumes, parties, and unforgettable nightlife. This year, the city welcomes a major new addition as Freaky Deaky NOLA makes its debut at Mardi Gras World on October 30–31, bringing a stacked lineup featuring Porter Robinson (DJ Set), FISHER, Of The Trees, Chris Lorenzo, Dabin, and more.
Presented by Disco Presents, Encore Entertainment, The Metropolitan, and Amps Events, the two-day festival brings one of electronic music’s most recognizable Halloween brands to a city already famous for celebrating the holiday. The result is a new Halloween weekend destination designed for dance music fans from across the country.
The inaugural lineup showcases a diverse mix of today’s top electronic artists across two nights. Opening night features Porter Robinson (DJ Set), Of The Trees, and Dabin alongside JKYL & HYDE, Know Good, and Canabliss. Halloween night shifts toward house music with headliners FISHER and Chris Lorenzo, joined by Devault, Bradeazy, Xandra, and Skilah. Additional artists will be announced in the coming months.
Building on the long-running success of Freaky Deaky Texas, the New Orleans edition expands the festival into one of the world’s most iconic Halloween cities, giving fans another can’t-miss destination to celebrate the holiday through electronic music.
Halloween has always held a special place in New Orleans culture. Between the city’s historic streets, legendary nightlife, and costume-filled celebrations, it’s already one of the most sought-after places to spend the holiday. Freaky Deaky NOLA adds another layer to that tradition with a large-scale music festival unlike anything the city has seen before.
Hosted at Mardi Gras World, the festival transforms the home of New Orleans’ famous Carnival floats into a fully immersive Halloween experience complete with massive stage production, theatrical décor, roaming performers, interactive activations, local vendors, and thousands of fans in costume. Combining Freaky Deaky’s signature festival production with the unmistakable atmosphere of New Orleans creates an experience that feels uniquely suited for Halloween weekend.
The event also marks a first-of-its-kind collaboration between Disco Presents, Encore Entertainment, The Metropolitan, and Amps Events. Together, the four promoters bring decades of experience producing concerts, festivals, and Halloween events, blending national festival expertise with deep ties to the New Orleans music community.
For Disco Presents founder James “Disco” Donnie Estopinal Jr., launching Freaky Deaky in New Orleans is especially meaningful.
“New Orleans is home. It’s where I threw my first raves over 30 years ago, so this one’s personal. Ryan, Rob, Mike and I have all been part of this scene for a long time, and bringing Freaky Deaky here together just feels right. I think people are going to love what we’ve built.”
