Spookiaco: Subiaco’s Halloween Takeover

This Halloween, Subiaco comes alive. Come for the monsters, stay for the mischief.

For one weekend, the streets turn curious: larger-than-life monsters land in Market Square Park, laneways transform after dark, and a spooky charm settles over the whole precinct. There are ghost stories to tell, cocktails to sip, treats to find, and family fun around every corner.

At the heart of it all is MONSTERS CAN’T FLY, a glowing new installation by artist Matthew Aberline: a gathering of wildly colourful creatures, a riot of colour by day and lit from within by night.

Wander the streets, find something unexpected at every turn, and lose an evening to art, entertainment, food, drinks and a little Halloween magic.

Come curious. Leave enchanted.

When: 30 October – 1 November 2026 (the monsters linger until 8 November)
Where: Across Subiaco — Market Square Park, Rokeby Road and surrounding laneways
Cost: Free
