Once the hub of the city’s U.S. mail system, the long-abandoned USPS headquarters in Houston has been transformed into a dynamic cultural center expanding the city’s vibrant downtown options for places to eat, work, and be entertained.

Venue Website

We have 6 bar stations planned for the Halloween Ball. Nobody likes confusing lines, crowded bars, or line cutters, so to make your experience the best possible, we’ve moved the bars and bar lines into the Northwest Glass Rooms on both the 1st and 2nd levels where there is space for organized lines and easy in-out.

VIP Ticket holders have exclusive access to the VIP Bars on the 2nd floor, but can also purchase from any bar. 

The Skylawn will be open until 11pm. GA+ and VIP guests have access to the roof from the NorthWest stairwell. The Skylawn at POST offers a gorgeous view of the Houston Skyline – so check it out before 11pm!

If you’d like to upgrade your ticket to access the Skylawn, you can find instructions on how to do so here.

Security will be monitoring the roof closely. Any unsafe tomfoolery or rule-breaking will result in immediate removal from the premises, adhering to our zero-tolerance policy.

We highly recommend utilizing Rideshare for a safe and fun evening. The following address will bring you right to the Rideshare Drop-off Zone.

Here’s the rideshare zone address:
111 Bagby St, Houston, TX 77002

Event Parking is easily available on-site at POST, to the West of POST there is a city flat-rate metered parking lot. Also, various street-level parking and garage options are available in the area.

If you are driving, we suggest entering on the East side of post to avoid the ride-share drop-off zone as shown in the map above.

• Have your Ticket & ID ready to expedite entry.
• You must have your QR Code ready to scan.
• All guests must present ID at the door.
• This event is 18+ only.
• 21+ guests will receive a bar credential.

All guests will be scanned by a metal detector and are subject to additional search or pat down by security personnel. 

Bags, backpacks, and purses are NOT allowed at the Halloween Ball. For those who do not have pockets, we will permit a small clear clutch-style bag… here’s one we suggest from Amazon prime for only $6.

Re-entry is not permitted.
See ya next year.

#1. No real or fake weapons of any kind will be allowed. This includes plastic guns, knives, and swords. We have a zero-tolerance policy, and violators will be removed promptly.

#2. No hateful, offensive, or culturally insensitive costumes will be allowed. There are plenty of other options out there- the Halloween Ball is an event for everyone.

#3. No nudity or profanity. Use your best judgment, and when in doubt, consider another lewk.

#4. Event Staff, Police, Security, and Facility personnel reserve the right to remove anyone with a costume deemed inappropriate for the atmosphere for any reason.

Here’s how we’ve decided to conduct the costume contest. Our Halloween Ball minions will be on the watch-out for the best costumes. If you receive a golden envelope, you’ve been selected as a finalist. Meet us at the base of the stairs after midnight for final voting! 😉
