If you thought there weren’t many ways to celebrate Halloween in Buenos Aires, we’re here to tell you that one of the city’s most spectacular buildings invites you to discover the terror of Halloween night through one of Latin America’s most feared myths.
In the corridors of the Barolo Palace, La Llorona comes to life: there’s no stage or theater seats, but there is poetry, live music, and the option to end the night on an incredible terrace.
If you’re a fan of gothic horror and out-of-the-ordinary experiences, don’t miss this immersive theatrical experience set in the hallways and hidden corners of this Buenos Aires palace. Dress up for the occasion and become part of the Halloween terror this October 31.
What is the La Llorona immersive experience about?
As you make your way through the palace’s labyrinth, different characters appear just inches away from you. Through storytelling, poetry, projections, and live music, each one offers a different perspective on who La Llorona really is, reconstructing this popular myth from a dark, poetic, and unsettling perspective.
To add even more mystique to the evening, dressing in period or gothic-themed attire is more than welcome: it’s the perfect excuse to fully immerse yourself in the story’s atmosphere.
If you want to turn this outing into a full night out, you can end your evening at Salón 1923, the rooftop located at the very top of the Barolo Palace.
The Mysteries of the Barolo as a Halloween Setting
The Barolo Palace is much more than just one of the most beautiful palaces on Avenida de Mayo. It’s a labyrinth inspired entirely by Dante Alighieri’s *The Divine Comedy*, which was inaugurated in 1923 and designed by Mario Palanti.
This Buenos Aires gem, which is always worth a visit, divides its 22 floors among Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise. Walking through its corridors filled with symbolism, exploring its domes, or gazing at the illuminated city of Buenos Aires from 100 meters above is to fully connect with the mystical elegance that makes our capital so unique.
Did you know that the Barolo Palace is the only building in the world with an active urban lighthouse?
