Fremont Street Experience to Host Sixth Annual OktoberFrightFest

Tap Into Fear Oct. 5 – Nov. 1

Fremont Street Experience will once again transform itself for the Sixth Annual OktoberFrightFest, combining Oktoberfest and Halloween for the ultimate street party, taking place October 5 – November 1. The spooktacular festivities will include free performances from the popular stage production show “Frank & The Steins,” “Vampire Rising” and “Halloween Hotties.” Viva Vision light and sound shows will also be themed to “Time Warp” and “Monster Mash.”

Frank & The Steins:
“Frank & The Steins” is a live musical revue of classic Halloween songs.  The cast is comprised of hot ghouls and guys; singers, dancers and live musicians performing songs including “Psycho Killers,” “Spooky,” “Time Warp,” and “Ghostbusters” that will make audiences dance, laugh, sing and scream.  “Frank & The Steins” is produced by Face Productions and choreographed by Melden Steele.  Frank & The Steins will perform on the 1st Street Stage Oct. 5 – Nov. 1 from 8 p.m. – 11 p.m. (dark on Oct. 9, 16 and 23).


Vampire Rising:
“Vampire Rising” will perform three themed sets that highlight a vast repertoire.  The Gothic Set includes a set list on the heavy side of rock and will include songs from Rob Zombie’s “Dragula,” Alice in Chains’ “Man in the Box,” and Black Sabbath’s “Paranoid.”  The Pop Horror set is hosted by the “Addams Family” and will feature some of the lighter side of the macabre with hits like Michael Jackson’s “Thriller,” and Oingo Boingo’s “Dead Man’s Party.” The third set, titled Rock From the Dead, will have the band costumed like some of our dearly departed rock stars and will regale the crowd with renditions that include Warren Zevon’s “Werewolves of London,” Guns & Roses’ “Welcome to the Jungle” and Blue Oyster Cult’s “Don’t Fear the Reaper.” Vampire Rising will perform on the 3rd Street Stage Oct. 7 – Oct. 30 on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 9 p.m. – Midnight and Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays from 7 p.m. – 10 p.m. (dark on Oct. 18)


Halloween Hotties
The sexy, crowd pleasing, “Halloween Hotties” are back, this time featuring American Idol Season 6 Finalist Haley Scarnato. “Halloween Hotties” is a custom stage production show created exclusively for Fremont Street Experience by Face Productions. Halloween Hotties will perform on the Main Street Stage Oct. 6 – Oct. 31 on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 8 p.m. – 11 p.m. and Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays from 7 p.m. – 10 p.m.

Fifth Annual Fall Beer Festival (Golden Nugget):
Fremont Street Experience member property Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino will host its Fifth Annual Fall Beer Festival during a two-day event on Oct. 10 & 11. This two-day festival brings together consumers, craft beer vendors, live music, great food and hundreds of beers in two very different events.  The first event kicks off Friday, Oct. 10 from 7-10 p.m. in The Grand Events Center.  Guests will sample over 125 craft beer selections from award-winning breweries and enjoy chef-inspired appetizers, live entertainment and mingle with award-winning brew masters. Tickets to this event can be purchased individually for $50 plus taxes at the Golden Nugget Box Office. The fun continues on Saturday, Oct. 11 with an exciting Oktoberfest Pool Party from 1-7 p.m. at The Tank Pool, Golden Nugget’s award-winning pool and shark aquarium. Admission is free and beer enthusiasts can enjoy 150 different international and domestic beers available for purchase as well as bratwursts, pretzels and more great food while enjoying live music throughout the party

Guests interested in both events can receive discounted food and beer tickets for Saturday’s Oktoberfest Pool Party with paid admission to Friday’s All American Craft Beer Tasting.

Viva Vision Shows:
Fremont Street Experience’s nightly Viva Vision schedule gets a little more spooktacular with two mini Halloween-themed themed sing-along/dance-along shows to “Time Warp” and “Monster Mash.” The shows are 3-4 minutes long and will play after regularly scheduled Viva Vision shows.
