Some nights make you fall a little more in love with where you live. October 30 was one of those nights.

About 800 guests. A whole lot of dancing. And right in the middle of Brickell, a reminder of how good it feels to be part of something together. Our 5th Annual Not-So-Spooky Celebration filled The Underline with the kind of energy you wish you could bottle up and take home.

We started Not-So-Spooky in 2022 because Brickell’s events were geared toward adults, and families needed something of their own. We wanted children to have a celebration right here in their neighborhood, a place to dress up, dance, play, and make memories together. Five celebrations later, look how far we’ve come. If you were there, you helped write this chapter. We hope you left with a full heart, a few new memories, and a little extra pride in calling Brickell home.

To the families and neighbors who joined us, thank you for making time for your community. You helped make this another evening to remember.

To our BOO Crew, thank you for the time, energy, and care you brought to the celebration. Traditions like this grow because neighbors choose to show up and help make them happen.

Missed this year? You’ll want to be part of the next one. Bring your family, invite someone from your building, and come make a little Brickell history with us.
