Ottawa music fest to rock Halloween

Ottawa’s ‘Til Death Fest will return this month with an expanded two-night edition that incorporates Halloween celebration along with the festival’s electronic music.

The event will feature a Halloween-themed backdrop with special lighting and decorations to bring the spooky atmosphere. Attendees are also invited to wear their costumes to one or both nights, with prizes of the best group and individual costumes. Attendees can also dance, mosh and enjoy adult beverages safely.

The event, originally called Til Death Do Us Party, is known for bringing in top acts from the electronic and drum ‘n’ bass worlds, including artists from Canada, the US and the UK to create a ground-shaking party. The first night of this year’s festival will feature Mustdie! and Jiqui, while the second show will feature Subdocta, Tsuki, and Substance.

Promotion for the festival has also featured the Halloween theme, including tombstones with letters that could be unscrambled to reveal the names of the headliners. Music festivals like this often use eye-catching poster printing and media advertising along with more creative approaches to reach an audience. Other advertising for the event states that:



“Whether you're joining us for one night or surviving the entire weekend, prepare for two wild nights of monsters, mayhem, and bone-shaking BASS.”




The 2026 edition of ‘Til Death Fest will take place on October 30 and 31 at the Preston Event Centre in Ottawa.
