Are you ready for another '80s costume party?

The Contemporaries of the Museum of Fine Arts and the Zodiac Group of the Salvador Dalí Museum are hosting El Dia De Los Muertos on Saturday, Nov. 1. The "Day of the Dead" party is at the Museum of Fine Arts, 255 Beach Drive in St. Petersburg, from 8 to 11 p.m.

Those attending are encouraged to dress their scariest '80s attire (the zombies from Thriller? George Michael from his Faith video?). Prizes will be awarded.

Live music will mix with DJ action. Mexican food and premium cocktails are planned. The event benefits both museums. Zapata's Authentic Mexican Restaurant and Tequila Bar (111 Second Avenue NE) will host an after-party.

Tickets are $30 for Zodiac Group and Contemporaries members; $40 for nonmembers. (It's an additional $10 fee for tickets at the door.) Tickets are available online here.
