Headless Bangers Costume Ball: 2025

The 2025 Headless Bangers Costume Ball hosts a rocking and spooky Halloween party on Saturday, October 25, 2025, from 8:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m., at the Legends Ballroom in the Renaissance Hotel and Conference Center at World Golf Village.

The evening is presented by Bedrock, a band that offers the ultimate hair band experience. Bedrock performs high-energy music from the '80s and '90s, and never fails to get the crowd dancing.

Costumes are optional but expected, and cash prizes will be awarded for the best costumes. You may purchase libations from the cash bar and enjoy free sweets (think cookies, donuts, and Halloween candy). Psychics, fortune tellers, and tarot card readers will be on hand to offer wisdom from the spiritual world. You can also shop for crystals and hand-made jewelry.

BedRock rocks the night with their tribute to '80s and '90s music. They share the stage with the Northern Exposure Band, which plays rock n' roll music from the '60s to today.
