- Duran Duran fans were treated to a thrilling Halloween-themed tour kickoff last night as the iconic band transformed their live show into a haunting, all-out dance party. Decked out in eerie costumes and bathed in chilling lights and fog, the band delivered a spine-tingling performance that had the audience entranced from start to finish. The legendary new-wave group pulled out all the stops to create a fang-tastic Halloween experience that fans will be talking about for years.
The concert began with an eerie take on “Night Boat,” as lead singer Simon Le Bon, dressed as a suave vampire, prowled the stage, setting the atmosphere for a spooky and unforgettable evening. The crowd erupted as familiar hits like “Hungry Like the Wolf” and “Girls on Film” filled the venue, each song enhanced with haunting visuals and lighting effects that plunged the audience into a supernatural trance.
Each band member brought their own Halloween-inspired look to the night.

Drummer Roger Taylor, dressed as a skeleton, provided a pulsating heartbeat to the night’s festivities, keeping fans moving with his infectious beats. The real show-stealer, however, was bassist John Taylor, who, dressed as a stylish ghost, kept the energy up with his groovy basslines and playful interactions with the crowd.
Throughout the night, Le Bon engaged with fans in the spirit of Halloween, inviting costumed audience members to participate in a lively “Monster Mash” dance-off that had fans cheering for their fellow “creatures of the night.” He even took a moment to acknowledge some impressive fan costumes, handing out limited-edition Halloween Duran Duran merchandise as prizes.
Adding to the setlist’s surprises, the band performed “Blood Moon Rhapsody,” a never-before-heard track that combines haunting synths and moody lyrics with the band’s signature sound. The song, filled with dark, brooding undertones, resonated with the Halloween vibe, and fans responded with chills and cheers, thrilled by the exclusive live debut.
For the grand finale, Duran Duran delivered a powerful rendition of “Save a Prayer,” bathed in ghostly lights that seemed to dance with the music. The emotional performance capped off a night of spooky spectacle and left fans singing along, their voices echoing throughout the venue.
