A Saturday Halloween is a rare alignment in the party world; and this year, we hit the jackpot. 

With October 31, 2026 falling on a weekend for the last time until 2037, Davao City completely came alive to celebrate. We knew the local scene was going to go all out, but for the first time ever, The Peak at Gaisano Mall (GMALL) did something truly daring. 

When we heard about a multi-level rave happening right above the city, we knew we were in for a wild ride.

Elevating the party to a massive scale.

Taking over the 4th, 5th, and 6th levels of The Peak, SNNA’s Raveyard 2026: Mall of Circus completely transformed the familiar retail space into a sprawling, dark carnival.

This was a massive leap from the cramped street parties of the past. The sheer scale of the venue meant the massive crowd had genuine breathing room to dance, mingle, and show off their incredible looks. The energy was absolutely thrilling, buzzing under the open sky as thousands of Davaoeños packed the multi-level floors.

A haunted circus full of surprises.

Organized by Sanina Davao in collaboration with Orbit by Echelon, the production value was off the charts.
