Our second grand ball descends beneath the waves. An evening of sea-dark elegance with a sit-down three-course dinner and a live performance from Volcarna. Dress as the ocean's creatures — sirens, leviathans, drowned royalty. One hundred and fifty places. No more.
Nights that linger long after the last candle is out.
Our first grand ball — an evening of crimson elegance, candlelit waltzes and creatures of the night, remembered fondly by all who survived it.
An exclusive dinner deep in an enchanted woodland of shadow and whisper, staged for a select gathering of guests.
The evenings between the grand occasions — where the House's community gathers, and the next story begins to take shape.
Architects of atmosphere. Curators of the dark and the beautiful.
“Every event is a world built from scratch — atmosphere, narrative and company conspiring toward one unforgettable night.”
House of Kaos creates immersive gothic events in Newcastle upon Tyne — themed dinners and grand balls where costume is required, theatre is everywhere, and every detail has been placed with intent.
Around the events has grown a community of the like-minded: gothic souls, performers, artists and anyone drawn to an evening less ordinary. Whether you come masked or simply curious, there is a seat at the table for you.
Everything you need to know before stepping into the House.
Yes — House of Kaos events are strictly 21+. We may ask you to show valid photo ID on arrival, so please bring it with you.
Costume is required at themed events, as stated on the event listing. Each event has its own theme, so check the details on the Events section above for what to wear — or see our full Dress Code guide for inspiration and guidelines.
Most tickets are sold through Eventbrite — just follow the "Tickets on Eventbrite" link on the event you're interested in. Some bookings are also made directly with House of Kaos; if you book directly, your booking is covered by our own terms rather than Eventbrite's.
This depends on how you booked. Tickets bought through Eventbrite are covered by Eventbrite's own refund and transfer process. Tickets booked directly with House of Kaos are non-refundable but can be transferred to someone else — just email us in advance with the new attendee's details. Full details are in our Terms & Conditions.
Our events are held at a range of striking venues across Newcastle and the North East, chosen to suit each night's theme. The venue for each event is always listed on that event's details above.
Absolutely — many guests come solo. House of Kaos has grown a community of like-minded people, and you'll find a welcoming room whether you arrive with friends or by yourself.
Once a listing sells out, we're unable to add extra tickets. Follow us on social media (links below) to hear about new dates and future events as soon as they're announced.
