CAPA Haunts the Palace marks the theatre centennial on October 21 downtown. Paid spooky house night with ticket details on CAPA and Statehouse garage parking nearby.
CAPA Haunts the Palace lands Wednesday, October 21, 2026, at the Palace Theatre on Broad Street as part of the venue's 100th anniversary season. Tickets and exact start times post on the CAPA production page. Treat it as a paid special event rather than a free lobby open house or sidewalk scare zone.
The Palace sits in Downtown Columbus a short walk from Statehouse garages and Broad Street meters that empty after office hours. Halloween-week nights draw costume crowds, so allow time at will call and for bag checks at the door.
This fits adults who want a theatre-based Halloween plan instead of a haunted warehouse. Confirm bag rules and start time the week of the show, book a nearby dinner before doors, and browse other seasonal events if you are stacking a full October weekend.
Confirm hours on the official page the morning of your visit, pack a layer for evening air, and screenshot any timed-entry tickets before you reach the gate.
