Get ready for a night of costumes, dancing, and spooky fun!
Arib Hassam, VP Community Life SMCSU
SMCSU is set to bring back the high-energy, party-style events that students have been missing with the highly anticipated Hoikety Haunt Halloween Party at Bangarang Bar. Kicking off at 7 PM on October 24th, this Halloween bash will be complete with dancing, a costume contest, live DJ, and free catered food from Osmows’s Shawarma and Fresca Pizza.
Unlike the more relaxed and laid back events seen in recent years, Hoikety Haunt signals a return to the legendary party spirit that SMCSU events were once known for. However, what makes this event stand out is the implementation of a comprehensive risk mitigation plan. With safety and fun in mind, SMCSU has arranged for crowd control measures, wristbands for 19+ alcohol purchases, and attentive students and staff to ensure everything runs smoothly throughout the night.
Behind the revival of SMCSU’s legendary party energy is none other than the iconic Arib Hassam, the SMCSU VP Community Life known for his innovative ideas and dedication to the student experience. Arib, who has been at the center of many notable events over the past few years, including the immensely successful Mike’s Mixer pub night earlier this year, and the memorable Boba Ross paint nights which have become an SMC staple, has expertly orchestrated the Hoikety Haunt, turning it into one of the most anticipated Halloween parties in recent memory. Arib shared his excitement about reviving this tradition, saying, “We’re excited to make SMC great again!”
The event comes at the perfect time, providing a fun and festive way for students to let loose and celebrate after a long and stressful midterm season. While tickets are sold out, SMC students are welcome to drop by at 8pm and will be let in first-come, first served, subject to the venue’s capacity at the time. This is one Halloween party you won’t want to miss!
