The Vampires Ball (Baile dos Vampiros) is the official closing party for Fantasporto, the Oporto International FIlm Festival. Although the first edition happened in 1980 during the festival's first edition, the Vampires Ball has been again brought to life in 2000 as an yearly event. It's a true cinema celebration with a movie character dress code, that culminates as a soundtrack marathon and cocktail night, from dusk till dawn.

Several well known national and international artists performed at the event such as Peaches, Buraka Som Sistema, Ricardo Villalobos, Legendary Tiger Man, Spektrum, Alexis Taylor from Hot Chip, ZEN, Micro Audio Waves, The Gift and Late of the Pier among many others.
