Somehow Halloween is already here which is bleak, but that means one thing, a killer weekend of parties – here’s a few of our favourites alongside some great recently announced events coming up.

Dr Banana b2b Halloween Special | The Loft | Fri 27 Oct | £18

This Halloween special sees one of the UK’s most in-demand selectors hit the Loft for not one but two b2bs. Dr Banana will be bringing his sharp, tasteful cuts of house, garage and breaks and seeing what sparks fly when they’re combined with Tristan Da Cunha and Melody. The poster says two separate b2bs but the bio says b2b2b. Suitably mysterious.
