Lethal Bizzle is headlining the Leeds Halloween Carnival. Tickets are sure to sell out quickly as this two-day event has the best up-and-coming hip-hop, drum n bass, dubstep and grime as well as a funfair, competitions and, of course, fancy dress.

Grime
Headlining this most hedonistic of Halloween parties is one of the biggest players in the grime scene. He's won a Mobo award and performed at some of this year's biggest festival. Bizzle's appearance is one of a few good reasons why you should book up your Leeds Halloween Carnival tickets early. Fellow grime artist Skepta will also be taking the mic in the Urban Arena.

Foreign Beggars
But's not all grime. Hip hop fans can look forward to an appearance from Foreign Beggars who have supported some top-drawer acts including Public Enemy, Roots Manuva, Wu Tang, Ja Rule and Grand Master Flash. They're not just appearing at the party either. Get Leeds Halloween Carnival tickets and you could be in with a chance of learning a few hip hop tricks as Foreign Beggars are hosting workshops. There's also the chance to perfect your breakdancing, lyric writing and MC-ing as there are workshops throughout the festival.

Bboys and Bgirls
Leeds breakdancing heroes FreshJive are showing what makes them championship standard as well as hosting a special breakdancing competition for the festival. You have the chance to take part in the competition, along with DJ and scratching and MC competitions at the festival. Other events to take part in include the graffiti wall where work will be judged by professionals.

Jungle and Drum n Bass
Jungle beats are in plentiful supply at the Halloween Carnival with appearances from Nicky Blackmarket, the best jungle DJ 2008, Kenny Ken and Remarc as well as MC Logic, MC Jila and MC Rumpus. Drum n bass fans will no doubt find themselves at home in the Basement Arena with LD, Luke Envoy, Jack Sparrow and Ramadanman as well as special guests.

Funfair
To ensure you get plenty of fresh air, the Leeds Urban Festival are putting on a fantastic funfair to lure you outside. As it's Halloween, the theme is a little spooky. Get a monster makeover with special Halloween face painting, take a bite from a chilli toffee apple or warm yourself up with some jerk chicken and hot dogs from the barbecue. There's also thrill rides and all the usual funfair stalls and traditional games.

Fancy Dress
Other spooky Halloween features include scary cinema projections, fire eaters and, of course, Halloween fancy dress. And it's worth making an effort because if you dress up you'll automatically be put on the guestlist and if you look the best you'll win a prize.

Afterparty
Although you may feel like one of the undead by the end of the Leeds Halloween Carnival, tickets for the whole weekend will give you an afterparty that's sure to bring you back to life. There's more hip hop, good wholesome festival food and a special performance by DJ Jeppa, winner of the UK heats in the DMC World DJ Championships.
