FAQs

  • Monster Bash is Loma Portal's annual Halloween-themed carnival. The Foundation hosts it for both our Loma Portal school and larger Point Loma community.

  • Last year, we counted 1200 attendees through our front gates! This doesn't include the hundreds of people it takes to put on the event or anyone who came in any other gate. And, we expect an even bigger turn out this year!

  • LOTS!
    We have a bunch of inflatables for the kids to enjoy: an obstacle course, slides, a jumper, etc.
    And if they need a break from jumping, they can visit with animals at the petting zoo and the pony rides.
    Then, they can head to Artists' Alley for amazing Balloon Sculptures, Henna, Face Painting, and Caricatures.
    After that, they can play our carnival games for some awesome prizes!
    And, of course, you cannot forget about the infamous Dads Club Haunted Hallway!

    There is also a DJ, food trucks, glow drinks & other concessions, and trick-or-treating at tables sponsored by local businesses.

    Three hours will go by in no time!

  • Everyone is welcome!
    You know your kiddos best; if you think this will be a fun evening for them, bring them down!

    We have a specific toddler jumper for the littles. And, we always see alumni LPE students who wouldn't miss a Monster Bash simply because they have aged out of the school. This is truly a family-friendly community event.
