Welcome to the official website of
The Long Beach Zombie Fest and Infamous Zombie Walk
2019 LONG BEACH ZOMBIE FEST HAS BEEN UNFORTUNATELY POSTPONED THIS YEAR.
IT'S A GREAT ANNUAL EVENT, THAT WE ALL LOOK FORWARD TO HOWEVER THIS IS OUT OF OUR CONTROL.
CITY OF LONG BEACH HAS DENIED OUR 2019 DATES FOR THE VENUE STATING "NOT AVAILABLE" AND HAS DENIED OUR APPLICATION TO PROCEED. DUE TO THE SHORT NOTICE (LESS THAN 60 DAYS) THE EVENT CANNOT BE RELOCATED FOR THIS YEAR.
The Annual 2018 Long Beach Zombie Fest will be held October 19-21, at the Rainbow Lagoon in Long Beach, California. Long Beach Zombie Fest scares up a hell of a good time in truly macabre fashion with an assortment of activities for the whole family to enjoy. You're invited to shuffle your corpses to Long Beach for three days of fun this Halloween season. The infamous Zombie Walk in Long Beach will be taking place all three days, too. Costumes are encouraged, but not mandatory. COME DEAD OR ALIVE!
DON'T HAVE A COSTUME? Halloween is a classic holiday for getting things done at the last minute, if at all. Long Beach Zombie Fest takes the stress out of costume shopping by providing a team of killer Hollywood artists from Cinema Makeup School to turn you into a flesh-eating zombie. This service is completely free, too.
