There's a chill in the air, the leaves have begun to turn, everything’s pumpkin flavored. It's nearly time for Halloween, when the veil between this world and the next is thin and we dance with spirits of the night. Are you ready to release your inner demon and dance under the stars? Anything is possible with a little Hocus Floatus.

Floatmaster Glen North has crafted an immersive journey through Kalorama, like you've never seen it before. We'll cast a spell to turn DC into our own personal dancefloor. Join us as we make our way through parks, playgrounds, and forgotten corners of the city till you see DC in a brand new light. Commune with spirits as we paint the town red to beats pumped right into your ears through glowing headphones. Bring your boogie shoes because Glen and MISCALCULATED have crafted mixes that will move your spirit as well as your bones. We'll make you glow in the dark, but costumes are highly encouraged. Come celebrate the end of the Float season as we send it off with a night you won't soon forget!

What is Float: What The Float is a one-of-a-kind immersive adventure and a naturally socially distant dance party. Explore DC in a synchronous groove odyssey with the music pulsed directly into your brain but silent to any observers. Simultaneously the city’s most private dance party and its most public spectacle, we'll lead you not just on a journey through the city's wide open spaces and hidden nooks, but also through the inner reaches of your own freshly liberated soul. Dance where you've never dreamed of dancing before. Reclaim your home.

How to Float: Dress to be true to you. Wear comfortable shoes in which you can dance and run and climb and jump. We'll equip you with a pair glowing headsets, and the carefully curated music will lead you on a unique adventure through the parks and plazas of the city. Pack lightly, we'll be on the move. Once we’re gathered at the rendezvous point, we'll all dance away together into the night, with another stop for drinks and bathrooms along the way. Please join us promptly at 8:00pm if you do not want to be left behind. More info available at WhatTheFloat.com.
