FAQ's

What should I wear to this event?
- The Black Cat Ball is an "upscale Halloween party," so costume or cocktail attire is appropriate. However, you won't get turned away for showing up in whatever makes you feel most comfortable.
Is this event for children?
- Not really. If you want to bring your kid, we suggest not bringing kids younger than teens. Also, everyone who attends will receive two drink tickets, so, you know...more for you. 🙂 In the future, this event will likely be 21+.
Do I have to pay for anything once I get into the event?
- The only thing your ticket does NOT include is the entry fee to compete in the Costume Contest and additional drinks you buy beyond the two drink tickets you receive. Everything else is included.
Is it okay to show up late?
- Yes. However, dinner will be done by 8PM, so if you show up after that, you will miss that part of the event.
Will the event be scary?
- Yes, some parts of the event will be mildly scary. Nothing at the event will harm you; the event's purpose is to have fun. However, the Haunted Tours and Trust Your Guts Experience will be spooky.
Will the food be allergen-friendly?
- The food offered at both the VIP Reception and Main Event includes items that are both gluten-free and vegan.
Will there be cats at this event?
- Yes! We will have cats on-site during the VIP Reception. There will not be cats during the Main Event.

The Street Cats Club is improving the lives of stray cats throughout the Lyon County, KS area by controlling and reducing the growth of the community cat population through sterilization via trap/neuter/return, providing foster care for sick, injured, or orphaned stray cats, and supporting colony caretakers with resources and supplies. Each year, they spay/neuter more than 500 stray cats.
