Santa Ana Star Casino’s The Stage is turning things upside down with a circus freak show theme. “Cirque – New Mexico’s Ultimate Halloween Party” is featuring “strange and fantastic frights” of circus freak shows, according to a Santa Ana Star Casino news release.

Partygoers can watch a fire-eating siren, a “grinder” burlesque beauty, an extraordinary contortionist, a death-defying stilt walker, a little person barker and a unique half-man, half-woman little person. The performers will be scattered around The Stage doing bizarre performances all night.

Sandia Resort & Casino is working hard so you can come back soon! The health and safety of our guests, team members, and community is, and always will be, our number one priority. We have more sanitation stations, spaced out machines to have socially distanced fun on our expanded slot floor and a new air filtration system along with a no.

The party also will have a little bit of Vegas flair. DJ Karma, resident DJ at the Aria’s Haze nightclub in Las Vegas, Nev., will mix the hottest music and keep things going bump in the night. Step off the dance floor for a moment to enter the costume contest. It might just pay off and earn you the top prize of $1,000.
