The seasonal spectacle will reach its untimely ending the night before Halloween at a secret location with only 1,000 unfortunate souls allowed entry (if that’s you, sign up at the mailing list at the Wondaween website for your chance to attend). Monáe will lead the night as host and a press release bills the macabre evening as a “costumed celebration with surprise DJ sets throughout the night, unlimited rides, bites, progenys, and vamps from all around the world.” The gathering will most likely also see Monáe reveal her annual costume: In past years she’s played the headless bride, “Flyyyrene” (a reference to the fly that topped Mike Pence’s head during the 2020 debate), The Fifth Element’s Diva Plavalaguna, and E.T.

“Halloween is such a happy space for me. It has been since I was a kid. It opens a larger conversation of how do we become agents of joy? How do we become agents of happy? How do we become agents of imaginations?” Monáe told The Hollywood Reporter last year. “I’m just doing what I want to see more of. Bringing Halloween experiences and creative experiences is heart work, not hard work. I do this because my heart needs it.”
