Krampus Winter Ball – A Frightfully Formal Affair

Step into a night of dark holiday magic at the Krampus Winter Ball, Sacramento’s most immersive winter masquerade. Inspired by Alpine folklore and the legendary Christmas demon himself, this elegant yet sinister celebration transforms the season into an unforgettable evening of spectacle, mystery, and mischief.

Wander through a winter wonderland haunted by sinister creatures, twisted holiday décor, and cinematic-quality Hollywood FX. Dance the night away beneath enchanted lights with live entertainment and a high-energy DJ spinning throughout the evening. Capture memories at our 360° photo booth, compete for prizes in our costume contest, and indulge in frightfully festive cocktails crafted exclusively for the occasion.

Guests can also explore our dark holiday midway featuring games of skill, interactive attractions, roaming performers, and unexpected encounters lurking around every corner.

The Krampus Basket Jail

Know someone who belongs on the Naughty List? For a small donation, guests can purchase a Naughty List Warrant and have a friend, family member, coworker, or unsuspecting partygoer “arrested” by Krampus and his minions. The accused will be publicly escorted to the infamous Krampus Basket Jail, where they must serve a brief sentence of holiday shame before earning their release. Additional donations may be required for parole, bail, or special sentencing determined by Krampus himself.

Whether you’ve been naughty, nice, or somewhere in between, the Krampus Winter Ball offers a unique blend of elegance, folklore, horror, and holiday revelry unlike anything else in Northern California.

Dress to impress. Expect the unexpected. Fear the bells.
