There will be world-class entertainment and exquisite banquets to get your fangs into this Halloween as The Crazy Bear in Stadhampton brings back its legendary Vampire Ball for two unforgettable nights of lavish allure and mischief.
Running on Friday, October 31 and Saturday, November 01, the event promises to transform the iconic venue into a Vampire’s lair filled with glamour, spectacle, and spellbinding live performances. Guests will enjoy a glass of champagne on arrival, followed by a sumptuous English and Thai buffet, breathtaking live acts, a DJ, and dancing from 7.00pm until 1.00am.
On Thursday night, Kimberly Nichole—finalist on The Voice USA and the renowned Mistress of Madness from New York’s The Box—will host the evening, bringing her trademark powerhouse vocals and captivating stage presence.
That evening will also feature Bella Ballerina, whose fusion of classical pointe work and theatrical sensuality promises an entrancing performance.
Friday night welcomes Ruby Murry, the internationally acclaimed cabaret performer and Britain’s Got Talent favourite, as host. The night will also feature award-winning burlesque star Serafina Hart, winner of the World Audience Classic Crown at the Zurich Burlesque Festival and Miss Nasty Burlesque in Italy, alongside the Ukrainian Bilak Brothers, whose acrobatic feats will astonish audiences.
Both evenings will include performances from Lifford Shillingford, the soulful singer who has shared the stage with Aretha Franklin, Chaka Khan, and Craig David, and reached the Britain’s Got Talent semi-finals in 2018.
Audiences will also be captivated by award-winning contortionist Teagz, an international performer known for her dazzling flexibility and artistry.
Rob Puffett, General Manager at The Crazy Bear, said the team is thrilled to see the return of its much-loved events. “The Vampire Ball offers a remarkable line-up of talent and launches our autumn and winter series in true Crazy Bear style,” he said, encouraging guests to book early for what is set to be Oxfordshire’s most glamorous Halloween celebration.
Tickets cost £85 per person, and seating is arranged at shared tables, offering the perfect chance to meet fellow Halloween enthusiasts. Guests are advised to arrive early, soak up the eerie atmosphere, and—most importantly—dress to impress.
The Crazy Bear has also recently launched Oak, its new family-friendly restaurant, while its acclaimed Thai restaurant continues to serve vibrant modern cuisine during an exciting revamp ahead of a November relaunch.
