Casamigos outdid themselves once again with their annual “Brought to You by Those Who Drink It” Halloween party. This year’s event took place at a private home in Beverly Hills with branded moments throughout from custom LED lit lucite logos on the front hedges of the home to the photo moments and content to the specialty designed bars. Now you can recreate the delicious cocktails enjoyed by all for your very own Halloween party with the recipes below.
Once guests made their way through the paparazzi filled entrance and into the gated yard, they were greeted by an incredible scenic replica of the infamous Casamigos tequila truck complete with realistic 3D elements including an LED lined frame, flashing hazard lights and headlights integrated into the truck’s side imagery. The truck featured a Halloween version of the Halloween Casamigos graphic along with George Clooney, Rande Gerber and Mike Meldman holding pitchforks with agaves. The experiential moment served as both a branded photo op as well as a fun backdrop for the iconic “bell shot” experience. As guests successfully hit the bell, the lights flashed on Rande and George’s graphic motorcycle. The truck appeared to have been taken over by skeletons who raided the contents and then celebrating with some Casamigos of their own. This scenic display along with an incredible agave style “pumpkin patch” with dozens of custom created LED lined neon agaves, completely encapsulated the front yard.
As guests made their way through the home, they moved through a dynamic custom LED paneled tunnel with mirrored ceiling featuring curated content of the Casamigos founders riding down Route 66 on motorcycles with skeletons and flags against an ominous evening sky. The tunnel helped transport guests into a physical manifestation of the Casamigos’ Metaverse. This immersive experience included a 360-degree video projection installation with overhead screens featuring custom Casamigos themed content set to music. Guests also had the opportunity to create playful gifs while riding a branded see saw in front of a futuristic backdrop in an LED style gif photo booth.
Massive diamond mirrored bars with LED back bars lined with Casamigos Tequila served as the party’s centerpiece of the night with bartenders and servers outfitted in stylish futuristic attire. Sleek lounge furniture, specialty cocktails, delicious late-night bites and a live DJ rounded out the evening and brought the extraordinary energy Casamigos Halloween parties are famous for.
Party guests chose from three signature cocktails for the party, the Spicy Cucumer Jalapeno Margarita, the Blood Orange Margarita and a smoky Casa Paloma.
