Funeral Party

Hi belfry bats 🖤 seeing a lot of new and activity on this page and wanted to let anyone who was not aware know that this event was laid to rest in May and will not be continuing. Please give your support to Fascination Street this Friday for their first event and all of their others in the coming months - it was founded by two of our own and will be keeping the torch burning in Fredericksburg now that Funeral Party has ended.

Thank you guys for everything across the last two years, it was a really amazing ride. A proper farewell post will be made soon. We loved dancing with you and watching this community grow and thrive and we hope that you'll continue to keep the scene alive with Fascination Street.

here's the official flyer for our final event - we look forward to dancing with you one last time

COMING SOON TO Reclaim Arcade, Back to the Belfry is a DJ night and clothing swap all in one! Enjoy hours of old school goth spun by DJ Hodge as we reimagine the energetic, creative, and wonderfully dark Batcave club of the early 80's.

If you've followed us for a while you'll remember our hugely successful clothing swap, which is now making its highly anticipated return! Bring in your gently used, clean garments, accessories, art, DIY, and more to trade with your fellow goths and alternative friends. This is the perfect opportunity to do some spring cleaning and take home some new treasures!

If you bring clothing or other goods to the swap, items are FREE! Nothing to donate? No problem! Everything will be $1 each. Clothes will be organized by size only, and everything not taken at the swap will be donated at a location TBD.

See you bats soon!🦇🕸️

Full info coming very soon for Return to the Belfry, which is only 3 weeks away!!

For now, let's just say...you might wanna free up some closet space for this one👀

Our Undead Masquerade was a HUGE success!! Thank you all for packing out the dancefloor and showing Reclaim Arcade what goth is all about🖤🥀

If you were lucky enough to grab a Funeral Party sticker on Friday, tell us where you put yours! We get visitors from all over so we can't wait to see where they end up.

And in case YOU can't wait for more dark dancing, keep an eye out on our pages for some upcoming announcements on our next event, which will be in March! Same venue, different theme, all goth. Stay tuned!🦇

Season’s greetings and happy solstice Belfry Bats! Our holiday Funeral Party and farewell to Curitiba is only ONE WEEK AWAY!

Since you’ve been extra good this year, we wanted to treat you to a little gift. From us to you, the Funeral Party hosts each compiled about an hour’s worth of their favorite goth and adjacent tunes in separate playlists to get to know us better and the music we’re always spinning. Here’s the link!

You’ll also find James’ Halloween AND World Goth Day sets here as well as our 100 Essential Goth Songs from the special edition zine Britt created this year. Let us know which is your favorite!

We hope this tides you over until our Funeral Party next week and beyond while we work to deliver more exciting treats to you in the New Year, including a full recap of your favorite moments with us in 2023.

Happy listening!
-Host James

Greetings everyone! We hope everyone had a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving. We've been planning this announcement for quite some time and we're so excited to finally share with you all.

Firstly, we had a name change! Going forward, all events and mentions of us will be under the new name FUNERAL PARTY!

Secondly, and most importantly, our Christmas event on Thursday, December 28 will be our FINAL NIGHT at Curitiba. If you've been to any of our major events throughout our 1.5 years at the café you've probably noticed the INSANE growth we've had in that time! We're eternally grateful to Curitiba for supporting us from the very beginning so let's make this farewell party one to remember!!🦇

Don't fret though; we aren't going anywhere. Details on our new venue will be coming soon - along with a brand new high-production event in January that you WON'T want to miss!

Thank you all as always for your loyalty and support, it's because of you that we're able to evolve and grow so quickly and we can't wait to make Funeral Party bigger and better in the new year!🖤
