BOO Seattle is the Pacific Northwest's Halloween rave: two nights indoors at WAMU Theater over Halloween weekend, three stages deep. GRiZ and Subtronics top the 2026 bill, with the undercard split cleanly between bass weight and house groove.
The bass wing runs Space Laces, Getter, Kayzo, Levity and Reaper; the house side answers with James Hype, Cloonee, Walker & Royce, Westend and Wuki; and a hard-and-fast current (Sara Landry, Azyr, Clara Cuvé) keeps the late hours honest. A strong UK contingent (Champion, Taiki Nulight, Hannah Laing, Joshwa) rounds out one of the more balanced bills Insomniac books all year.
Reaper plays Friday's 9:30 PM slot in The Bassment, the set Ravenscoon held on the earlier schedule.
Expect dubstep, house, bass and tech-house across 48 acts.
