About

This Halloween, step into the shadows and join us at The Trades for a night of cabaret, games, live music, and a goth dance party to wake the dead!

In the Main Hall:

Symphøny of Shdøws

Children of the night! Melancholophiles! Necro-fetishists! Sepulchral sons, deathly daughters and those whose unnameable, phantasmagoric and occult gender defies our petty human tongue! Danse floor fillers from Bauhaus to the Banshees, from X-Mal Deutschland to Clan of Xymox!

Hosted by Benjamin Louche!

Cabaret from The Double R Club!

Trick or Treat lucky dip for Cabaret vs Cancer!

Ghoulish face Painting!

And more.

In the Upstairs Bar:

It's Her Factory Presents... Beau Bowen

Beau Bowen return to the Trades with their new show, a Halloween Special!

If you're looking for something punchy, neoclassical, and semi-abstract, and that leans toward strong musical flavours, you cant go amiss with the avant-garde duo Beau Bowen.

If you're a fan of Sparks, perhaps with some of the supernatural essence of Björk you'll be a little closer to embracing the beauty & variety of the Beau Bowen sound. It is a sound that you will want to hear again and again - this music invites intimacy. These Auteur-Rockers have even created an ingenious visual package, which delivers a multi-dimensional live show that is a spectacle to behold.

Beau Bowen are today's missing link with the eternal heartbeat within artistic performance and musical expression!
