Halloween’s Haunt is Over, But Miami’s Most Memorable Night Belongs to BACARDÍ x Camila Cabello’s ‘Full Moon’ Bash
As the Halloween haze fades and we swap costumes for coats (or at least, we pretend to in Miami), it’s time to look back at one of the most thrilling parties of the season. Hosted by the one and only Camila Cabello, BACARDÍ Rum’s “Full Moon” Halloween bash at Joia Beach was a night that still lingers in our minds — and the photos? Pure magic. Camila proved she’s “305tilidie” as she redefined Miami Halloween with a party that was all rhythm, rum, and a little bit of rumba!
Camila’s Spellbinding Look and Star-Studded Guest List
Camila stole the show in a dazzling Cuban Tropicana Dancer costume styled by Katie Qian and brought to life by L.O.C.A., with over 10,000 hand-placed rhinestones shimmering under the Miami moon. Topping off the look? An ostrich feather headpiece that made her every move hypnotic. Camila brought the heat as she mingled with stars like Odell Beckham Jr., Emily Estefan, and celebrity makeup artist Patrick Ta. They joined partygoers under the light of a massive, glowing moon installation that felt like it was plucked straight out of a tropical dream. DJ Walshy Fire of Major Lazer was on the decks, ensuring that no one stood still for too long.
Surprises, Sips, and Stellar Soundtracks
Camila couldn’t resist surprising fans with a first listen of her new single, Move, a collaboration with Adam Port (of Keinemusik), setting the perfect beat for the night’s festivities. As a nod to her Cuban roots and Miami's magic, she danced with the crowd while Walshy Fire played tracks from her latest album, C’XOXO, including fan favorites like She Knows and Hot Uptown.
The vibe was electric from the start, with DJ sister duo Coco & Breezy opening the night before Walshy Fire took over. And let’s talk cocktails — because what’s a BACARDÍ bash without the best rum in the game? Guests sipped on the eerie “Blood Moon” and a reimagined version of Camila’s own “Eye Luv It” Punch, a tropical twist featuring BACARDÍ Superior Rum, St-Germain, passion fruit, lime, and coconut water. It’s safe to say the crowd had their fill of Halloween magic — BACARDÍ style.
Costume Highlights and Miami Glamour
The event’s celestial elegance was perfectly matched by the guests’ costumes, with standout looks like Daymond John’s fierce Steampunk Gladiator and Emily Estefan as a glowing Sun Goddess. Odell Beckham Jr. kept things cool with an over-the-head pashmina, shutting down the party in true Miami style.
To top it off, superfans even got a rare chance to chat with Camila, swapping Halloween costume tips and sharing a few unforgettable moments with the pop sensation. The night truly encapsulated Miami’s spirit: glam, a bit wild, and undeniably unforgettable.
So, while the Halloween season may be over, BACARDÍ x Camila’s “Full Moon” party has already set the bar high for next year. We’re still catching our breath — and maybe pouring another glass of BACARDÍ in its honor. Until next Halloween, Miami! Don’y miss the amazing photos below!
