Howl with The Beast!

Every year, we like to kick off the Season of The Beast with a fun, silly hat party at Telegraph. It's a great way to raise money for the festival. People join us for good food, good beer, good company and awesome raffle prizes from various Friends of The Beast!  

They also wear some amazing hats! Bowler, princess, fez, sailor, sexy-30's-feather, baseball, cowboy, pork pie, witch, church lady, viking, ten gallon, beer can, Beach Blanket Babylon, Burning-Man-extra-furry-glow-stick-fun-time. 

Don't believe us? Just check out the pics from past hat parties below.
