Nightfall
October 23rd , 7:00pm – 10:30pm

The Gothic Arch marks the beginning. Where the night takes you next is another story.
Something new is coming to Brooklyn’s most storied grounds. For two nights only, Green-Wood’s winding pathways will lead you deep into unfamiliar corners of the Cemetery, where darkness holds more than you’d expect. See where the shadows dance in a world of spectacle and mystery.
Been to Nightfall before? This isn’t the event you remember. First time? There’s no better night to start.
Premium ticket purchasers receive two complementary drinks from the bar, and a special limited edition Nightfall enamel pin and sticker!
