[Update 10/22: Both sessions of the Oct 25 party are now fully booked and tickets will not be available at the door].

With weeks to go before Halloween, there’s lots of time left to plan a group costume with your family! To inspire you, we’ve rounded up costumes from around the web. Come along and wear them at our beijingkids 9th Annual Halloween Costume Party. There are three sessions, taking place downtown on Sunday, Oct 25 at the Canadian International School of Beijing (two sessions), and in Shunyi on Sunday, Nov 1 at Keystone Academy (one session).

The beijingkids Halloween Party is a popular event: every year has been a sell-out, so get your tickets early, and make sure to club together with other families to take advantage of our discounted ticket prices – 20% off for 5 or more, 40% off for 10 or more.
