Seattle takes the season of ghouls and gourds very seriously, but October isn’t all Halloween events—the calendar is also filled with concerts, festivals, food & drink events, and tons more. As we do every month, we’ve compiled the biggest events you need to know about in every genre, from Adam Sandler to Dua Lipa’s Radical Optimism Tour and from An Evening with Samin Nosrat to the Great Pumpkin Beer Festival.

Rocky Horror Improv Show
Hot patootie, bless my soul, 2025 marks 50 years of The Rocky Horror Picture Show! With events all over Seattle gearing up to celebrate, Unexpected Productions is doing things a little differently with a full-on improv treatment. Every Friday this month, The Rocky Horror Improv Show mashes up the cult classic’s campy chaos with the anything-goes spontaneity of improv theater. We’re talking audience-fueled antics, improvised musical numbers, and lots of tongue-in-cheek nods to the iconic film’s legacy. Whether you’re heading into the show with a suggestion or just in your best fishnets, this one’s sexy, spooky, and a little unhinged (just the way it should be). LANGSTON THOMAS
