This Halloween, SUSHISAMBA Miami Beach will forgo traditional party themes and opt for a creative approach to celebrate our favorite fall holiday. On Thursday, October 31 from 7 p.m. – 3 a.m., the restaurant will honor Japanese tradition with its 8th Annual Cosplay Halloween Party. A marriage of the words “costume†and “playâ€, the iconic Japanese concept of cosplay is the act of dressing up in disguises that depict characters from anime, video games and movies.
When guests enter SUSHISAMBA Miami Beach, Harajuku-themed decorations will transport them immediately to the bustling streets of Tokyo. Taiko drummers, Cirque X dancers, and staff dressed as Geisha girls will add to the evening’s playful, funky ambiance. DJs will spin an intoxicating mix of Japanese pop music and crowd favorites while guests dine, dance and admire outrageous costumes until the wee hours of the morning.
The party will take place both inside and outside the restaurant, with a giant outdoor celebration on Pennsylvania Avenue, mirroring Tokyo’s Harajuku district, where cosplay enthusiasts often gather for photographs and costume contests. Prizes will be awarded for “best costume†and Halloween-themed smoked pumpkin caipirinhas ($12) – made with Mezcal, cachaça, pumpkin purée and muddled lime – will be available, along with complimentary Japanese candies throughout the evening.
