There's some weird shit happening around this city, and we're going to investigate it. What's going on and why? Where do these things occur? What does it all mean? Let's find out in the second instance of this event!
Preps
Required: prep a vehicle. There’s no official list, but it must be a land vehicle, preferably not weaponized (if your vehicle has weapons, please don’t use them). Hearses, SUVs, Benny’s vehicles, Halloween vehicles, and Arena vehicles are encouraged but not required.

. Meet at the Music Locker for a costume party! Take in the sights and see what everyone comes up with.
2. We’ll travel to Vinewood Cemetery before searching the map for UFOs and other scary stuff. Will we be abducted and meet the aliens? Or will be find out what’s happening in our city and fight back? That’s up to you, fellow HALPers. It’s kind of a choose-our-own-adventure sort of thing!
3. Either way, we’ll have a great time, because we’ll be there together. Stick around after the cruise to join
Grace_Nam_KR
for Slashers and some other Halloween themed adversaries to celebrate the spookiness of the season. It should be a great time!
4. A huge thank you to
Grace_Nam_KR
for collaborating with me for this event. I think between the two of us, there will absolutely be something for everyone this year!
NOTE We’ll be driving highway speed for the most part, and trying to keep pace with traffic and obeying traffic rules. Feel free to practice on your own to get a feel for it, because most of us don’t usually drive this way in game. It takes some getting used to.
Rules
1. No weapons, no cops, no fire dept please.
2. Do not purposely damage another HALPer’s vehicle.
3. No PvP. Acidents happen, especially when driving, but try to keep it to a minimum.

It's Halloween... a little late. Let's have some spooky fun! Second instance.
PREPS
(Only certain things are required. Otherwise, you can come as you are if you’re short on time. It’ll be fun either way!)
Required: A Costume For The Costume Party
Create a costume using any store that sells clothing, masks, etc.
Optional: A Spooky Ride For The Costume Party
Create a car that’s worthy of a Halloween party. Your imagination is the limit. It doesn’t have to be one of the Halloween cars. Utilize things like neon kits, tire smoke, interesting paint jobs, etc. to create a cool look on any vehicle!
Optional: Outfit For The Haunted Locations Tour
Create an FIB outfit, change into an alien costume, or do something entirely different to dress as some other paranormal entity. Since the theme is X-Files, I’ll be going as Dana Scully on the girl character.
Optional: FIB Fleet Vehicle
Create a vehicle that you feel would be appropriate for any FIB mission. Weaponized vehicles are fine AS LONG AS YOU DON’T USE THE WEAPONS. Examples would be the new Granger, the Benefactor Shafter, etc. Anything that looks like an official government sedan/SUV/etc. will work, including free options stolen from the street.
Required: Funeral Vehicle
Create a Benny’s vehicle, a Halloween vehicle, or something that would be appropriate for a funeral (example: the Romero Hearse spawns for free when another player’s Romero is present).
EVENT ITINERARY

1. Underground Costume Party At Rockford Plaza
Bring your best costumes and vehicles to the parking garage under Rockford Plaza! We’ll vote for the HALP Halloween royalty via an anonymous poll in Discord and the winners will be brought up onto the stage, similar to how we did the HALPers Ball royalty last year. Get ready to see some sweet rides and some spooky outfits!
2. X-files Themed Haunted Locations Tour
I had to cut the UFO hunt for obvious reasons, but the theme lives on in this tour of a few of San Andreas’s most haunted locations! Dress as an FIB agent, an alien, or any paranormal entity and be ready to have a great time with your fellow HALPers.
3. Benny’s Funeral
This will be a shortened version of the Benny’s Funeral from a few years back, only going from the cemetery to the pier. We’ll pay tribute to our friend Benny, the man who brought us so many awesome custom cars over the years. The funeral procession will end with the hearse being flown out to the ocean and dropped into the water. RIP.

1. Necessary: Steal or purchase a drop top/cabrio/no top vehicle. There are very few limitations this time. Avoid weaponized and/or military vehicles. If the weapons are hidden, that’s fine as long as they’re not used. Most drop top/cabrio/no top/open top vehicles are fine. Some vehicles have options at LSC to remove the roof or add an open top.
2. Necessary: Create a beach outfit. This can be a swimsuit, shirt and shorts, tank tops, or any combination of summertime clothing items. Hats, accessories, and shoes are optional, but feel free get creative! Flip flops and sunglasses will fit the vibe, but the options are open. All clothing stores/locations are fine, including the Diamond Casino store, the clothing truck at the LS Car Meet, and the shops on Vespucci Beach.
3. Optional: Prep multiple drop top vehicles and outfits. There’s no limit on how many times you can change vehicles or outfits. If you’ve got a few prepped, feel free to show them off. There will be a car meet at the end, so multiple vehicles may come in handy!

and head to LSIA. We’ll meet up at the Escalera rental car lot on Greenwich Parkway (between the airport LSC location and the LSIA Von Crastenburg Hotel) and wait for everyone to join. We’ll give it about 15 minutes. After that, people arriving will join us during the cruise. If it’s night once things get started, we’ll head to the Diamond Casino and Resort for a party at the Music Locker. Otherwise, we’ll just start the tour!
2. We’ll drive to Backlot city and park inside the gates so we can explore the complex on foot. There’s a lot more to it than we usually see during missions!
3. We’ll go on a driving tour of the homes of some famous Los Santos residents, both celebrities and stars of missions, and get food and gas at some point. Be prepared for a couple longer stretches of driving to reach some of the destinations.
4. We’ll see a couple of the landmarks of Vinewood and surrounding areas, and then go see a movie together at the Oriental Theater on Vinewood Boulevard and check out the walk of fame.
5. We’ll settle into our accommodations at the Diamond Casino and Resort and have a car meet.
6. In the morning, we’ll head to Vespucci Beach to catch some sun, and then head back to LSIA to catch our flight out of town (If someone wants to provide a flight out, feel free to do so.)
NOTE: The order of these events may vary slightly.
Rules
1. Be respectful of others. Avoid damaging the vehicles of others, PvP, etc. Accidents are unavoidable with this kind of event, but use caution to try to prevent it.
2. This is a role-play slow cruise. We’ll be driving at NPC speed, with traffic, obeying stop lights where possible. When we’re on foot exploring, we’ll be doing a bit of walking. We may also be staying at some famous Los Santos hotels at night!
Welcome to Los Santos, where all the movie magic happens! You're about to get a taste of what makes this town so special. Food, gas, and tickets are all included in this role-play vacation package, so be ready to clog drive thru lanes, jam pack gas stations, and be a great big tourist among the palm trees of sunny southern San Andreas! Our vacation package also includes a stay at the Diamond Casino and Resort, and access to the Music Locker! This is the first of two instances, each approximately 2.5 hours long. You are welcome to participate in both! Instances may run a bit longer depending on the crowd.

We're finally out of prison, Old Sport. Time to do it all again! Join us for the second session of Vintage Violence!
Preps
Necessary: Prep a vehicle. No vehicles that would have been new after 1955. We’re going full vintage! The Half-Track is allowed. The Albany Roosevelt is available. If you’ve bought it in the past, it should still be unlocked.
Necessary: Prep a vintage outfit! Valentine’s Day clothing was recently available in the stores, and if you’ve bought it before, it should still be unlocked. Otherwise, feel free to experiment and come up with something that looks like you might be heading to a speakeasy. Get creative and show off your vintage style!
Optional: Prep a Gusenberg Sweeper to use for visual effect. Not necessary, but will add a bit of authenticity. Otherwise, all weapons are allowed except for the alien guns.
Event Itinerary
1. Join Friends-Only Session on
RomanBrandt84
(send a friend request if we’re not friends) and meet up at the Yellow Jack Inn.
2. Once we’re all in, we’ll head over to the Sandy Shores Airfield and board Cargobobs to attempt to parachute into the prison! From there, we’ll all try to escape the prison alive and make it to Pacific Standard Bank in Los Santos, where the action will really ramp up!
3. It’s time to defend our reputations as bank robbers! We’ll take over Pacific Standard and hold the police off.
4. Afterward, we’ll assemble at the Colors of Los Santos parking lot overlooking the city for the Lover’s Lane Car Meet to celebrate! Vintage cars before 1955 preferred.
Rules
1. Be respectful of others.
2. No PvP. PvE only, we’ll be targeting the police rather than our fellow HALPers. Accidents happen, but avoid it when possible.
3. Come prepared to take in the sights and see what your fellow HALPers come up with as far as vehicles and outfits. We’ll be a bunch of flapper girls and gangsters!

Welcome to the second HALPers Ball! It's a sky-high event to celebrate all the HALPers, past and present. New HALPers, established HALPers, we're a family. This is for us!
THEME - Midnight - theme colors are blue, purple, gray, and black.
Preps
1. Create an outfit. The apparel for this event is formal, so dress to impress! No store limits, from Binco to the Casino store. Masks are fine. Outfits should use at least one of the theme colors. You can also create a separate outfit for the neons portion, and this outfit does not need to be formal, but one of the theme colors is suggested. Don’t forget about hair, this can also be used to express our theme colors if you want! Show off your creativity.
2. Prepare a vehicle for the neons portion of the event. Neon kit is the only requirement, but we’ve got some creative peeps, so I can’t wait to see what you come up with beyond that!
Event Itinerary
The day before, I will post a link in the Discord where you can nominate HALPers for HALP royalty.
1. We’ll meet at my penthouse for the initial before-party. Take a limo there, either from the casino limo service or a HALPer-provided limo service. Feel free to ride with other HALPers!
2. There will be a link in the Discord to an anonymous survey where you can vote for HALP royalty based on the HALPers with the highest number of nominations. The two HALPer with the most votes who are also at the event will be crowned royalty at our next location.
3. We’ll move to the roof of Arcadius Business Center via heli limo. We can try to get a party bus, a Benny’s car, or a Club up there for music. We’ll be announcing HALP royalty at this point, and then we’ll hang out and party with the city lights as our backdrop.
4. After this, we’ll parachute down to street level and assemble into the HALP royalty parade, with HALP royalty leading the way. Bring your neon kit equipped vehicle for this, and we’ll head for the neons garage for the car meet afterparty! We’ll show off our rides, our outfits, etc. Check out what your fellow HALPers have created!
Rules
1. No weapons, no cops, no fire dept
2. Do not purposely damage another HALPer’s vehicle.
3. No PvP. Accidents happen, especially on top of a skyscraper, but try to keep it to a minimum.

We gather together to mourn the loss of Benny. Bring a Lurcher, a Romero, or any of the custom vehicles available from Benny's to pay your respects. We'll cruise from one paranormal sighting to another, trying to see what we can find out in his honor. San Andreas is a hotspot for ghost sightings. Benny and Ghosts might seem like a weird combination, and it is, but you know... I mean... it'll work. Show off your costumes, your custom rides, and your ghost hunting skills as part of the Los Santos Paranormal Society!
Preparations
Necessary: Prep a vehicle. Allowed vehicles include the Albany Lurcher, Chariot Romero, and any of the custom versions of the vehicles available on the Benny’s website. Benny would want you to be there, and he’d want you in a custom ride or something creepy. Trust me.
1. Join the Friends-Only Session on
RomanBrandt84
(send a friend request if we’re not friends) and meet up at the Music Locker at the Diamond Casino and Resort in Los Santos. We’ll party while we wait for all the HALPers to load in!
2. We’ll line up outside the casino in a procession for the funeral cruise, with Roman leading the pack in a Lurcher. Benny was a good friend to us all, so let’s make him proud!
3. We’ll hit some paranormal hotspots, get gas and food, and end the trip by sacrificing the lead Lurcher containing Benny to the ocean via Cargobob. RIP Benny. He’ll be back to work like nothing happened after the event anyway, so idk. It’s probably a ghost.
4. Possible drag racing after, for those who want to stick around after the event!
Rules
1. Be respectful of others.
2. No PvP. This is an RP cruise, similar to the Rocoto Family Vacation/Emperor Cruise, etc.
3. Come prepared to take in the sights and see what your fellow HALPers come up with.

2. Optional: Create an outfit that says “I am done asking for for the manager, now I want the CEO.”
Event Itinerary
1. Join the friends session on
RomanBrandt84
and head to the Richman Hotel up to 30 minutes before the event time. If you’re not friends with
RomanBrandt84
and want to attend, send a social club friend request.
2. We’ll head to Pacific Standard Bank, where we keep our Kmart kill count list in the vault. But the manager won’t give it to us without ID! So it’s time to f*ck sh*t up!
3. We’ll attract police attention, and then keep them from getting in the building and taking over. It’s a holdoff! Use any weapons you have that aren’t attached to a vehicle (possible exception of the anti-aircraft trailer, if you can get to it before you die), from your bare hands to the mini-gun.
4. Feel free to rejoin or leave at any time during the event. We’ll go until the police stop showing up, or we reach the end of the event!
Rules
1. Be respectful of others.
2. No intentional PvP. Accidents are inevitable with this kind of event, but it’s definitely PvE this time. We’re working together to keep the realm of Karens safe from the intrusion of authority!

It's time for another slow cruise! This time we're heading out to Senora National Park in a caravan of Obey Rocotos to explore it on foot and do some light off-roading, then we'll head up Chiliad to see what these trucks can really do! Dress for a short hike around the park, and be ready for some off-roading fun. We'll start at a truck stop and end at another truck stop. If you missed out on the first instance, don’t miss this one too!
Preps
1. Necessary: steal or purchase an Obey Rocoto ($85k on the Sourthern San Andreas Super Autos site). All upgrades are allowed this time because of the route we’re taking, but make sure you can still keep a steady pace with your fellow HALPers on the freeway.
2. Optional: Create an outfit suitable for offroading and hiking.
Rules
1. Be respectful of others.
2. No blowing things up, no purposely blocking entrances and exits to our destinations, no low-grade griefing (purposely damaging other player’s cars, etc.), and also no griefing of any other kind.
3. This is a light role-play event. We will be pretending to get gas, get food, and we’ll be driving in a way that blends with traffic. If this is not your thing, you probably won’t have fun.
4. Don’t attempt to derail the event (calling emergency services, attracting police and not calling Lester/losing them, etc.) Most of the HALPers who join these slow cruise events are aware that it’s going to be a long drive with no PvP, and that’s what they expect.
5.No PvP. Accidents happen, but generally there will be no reason to have a weapon out in the first place. Save fireworks for the top of Chiliad, so that if they trigger police, the police can’t actually get to us.
6. Come prepared for a leisurely drive, and ready to enjoy nature with your fellow HALPers.
Event Itinerary
1. Join the Friends-Only Session on
RomanBrandt84
and head to the Tataviam Truckstop (the gas station with a Bishop’s Chicken and Ammunation on the East side of the map) up to 30 minutes before the event start time. If you’re not friends with

and want to attend, send a Social Club friend request.
2. Show off your Rocoto, get gas, get some snacks or something from Bishop’s before we get on the road. We’ll wait here for everyone to join.
3. We’ll head to Senora National Park for some hiking and offroading. Take photos, hang out, bring a festival bus and turn it into a music festival!
4. We’ll get gas in Harmony and then head up Mount Chiliad and look out at the world from the top.
5. Then we’ll head down the mountain and meet up at the Procopio Truck Stop to get gas and eat at the first Up-N-Atom Burger!

Los Santos Style. It's an individual thing. It has to do with where you come from, what you drive, and what you wear, but a lot of it comes from how you present all these things. Show off your Los Santos Style at the LS Car Meet! Pick a neighborhood in Los Santos (including Chumash, since it's close) and decide what vehicle and clothing brands and styles represent how someone from that neighborhood would present themselves. You can make combinations for as many neighborhoods as you want!
Preps
1. Necessary: Pick a neighborhood from Los Santos (including Chumash) to represent. Cruise around your chosen neighborhood to get a feel for the general vibe, what car brands you see sitting in the driveways on the streets, and what kind of clothing/clothing brands they wear there. Do some research into the quirks of your chosen neighborhood to incorperate into your creations.
Neighborhoods not included are non-residential, and there are smaller districts within each neighborhood. Neighborhoods included:
2. Necessary: Create a car based on your observations. It can be a free car from the local streets, or a DLC vehicle from the same brand you’ve chosen (example: There are a lot of Benefactor vehicles in Rockford Hills. I could steal a Schwartzer or buy a Schlagen GT for the event.)
3. Necessary: Create an outfit based on your observations. It can be an accurate recreation of the real outfits people wear in that area, or it can be an outfit that you feel represents the neighborhood. Feel free to incorperate your chosen vehicle brand in the outfit.
4. Optional: Repeat!
Example:
NEIGHBORHOOD: Rockford Hills
VEHICLE: Benefactor Schwartzer
CLOTHING BRANDS: Sessanta Nove and Perseus
Event Itinerary
1. Join the friends session on
RomanBrandt84
and head to the LS Car Meet in Cypress Flats. If you’re not friends with
RomanBrandt84
, feel free to send a request.
2. Show off your ride and your outfit while everyone loads in! Let us know in Discord what neighborhood, vehicle, and clothing brands you’re representing.
3. Once everyone is there, we’ll check everything out and hang out. Swap cars and outfits as many times as you want.
4. We’ll have drag races on the test track as well. Feel free to upgrade those rides if you want to participate! Get that rep. If you want to try out the spectator box to see what it looks like from there, that’s cool too. I will be in there off and on during the drag portion.
Rules
1. Be respectful of others.
2. On the test track, keep damage to others to a minimum. It’s a drag race, not a demo derby. Each player has their own lane.
3. Come prepared to take in the sights and see what your fellow HALPers come up with.

up to 30 minutes before the start. Roman will be at the first meeting spot when you load in, so just go to that location when you’re ready. We’ll hang out while we wait for everyone to join. Prepare for about 20 minutes of people joining. Anyone after that will find us on the way!
2. We’ll cruise, stopping at a drive thru and hitting the beach, etc.
3. This is a slow cruise, so expect to take your time and admire the city.
4. If we have time, we’ll hang out for a bit at the Music Locker after.
Rules
1. Standard drivetrain (engine, transmission, turbo, brakes not upgraded. Anything else is fine. You must SUFFER LOL!)
2. No PvP (Accidents happen)
3. All driving will be realistic (stopping at lights, stop signs, etc. while in town, reasonable pace on the beach.)
Required: Steal or purchase a BF Surfer. In the past there have been pop-up lots filled with the exact vehicle needed for this kind of thing :smile: Not sure if this is still a thing, but keep an eye out! The BF Surfer can also be purchased on Southern San Andreas Super Autos for $11,000. (Also keep in mind, even though this is a 4 door vehicle, it is apparently only a 2 person vehicle. Rockstar logic.) Both regular and beater models are allowed.
Optional: Create an outfit for the event. Beach, hippie, hipster, or summer themed. Go crazy, peeps!
This is instance 1 / 2. There are two instances of this event. If you are unable to attend one, you are welcome to attend the other. You are welcome to participate in both!
Ayyyyyyy welcome to the Surfer Cruise! Bring a BF Surfer and let's meet up at a couple local spots.

This is instance 2 / 2. There are two instances of this event. If you are unable to attend one, you are welcome to attend the other. You are welcome to participate in both!
Objective
This is a slow cruise, so expect to take your time and admire the scenery! Get ready to leave the road and explore an area straight out of a Canis commercial. Tall grass, mountains, ocean views, sparse forests, and even a beach! It's going to be a vacation to remember.
Preps
1. Necessary: Steal or purchase a Canis Mesa or Merryweather Mesa.
The regular Canis Mesa can be purchased from Southern San Andreas for $20k, and the Merryweather variant can be purchased for $87k from Warstock Cache and Carry. Roof or no roof is decided at random when you order, I think. If you steal them, they spawn with either roof type, so you can pick one.
I’ve heard rumors of pop-up Mesa lots in Los Santos where HALPers can take their pick from stolen Mesas! :smile: be on the look out, just in case!
2. Optional: Create a hiking outfit suitable for being a giant slag at high altitudes. Feel free to re-use your outfit from the Canyon Cruise if you attended that event, or create a new one.
Rules
1. No weapons (Flares and Fireworks can be used once we get to the top of Chiliad because the police can’t reach us there).
2. No PvP (Accidents happen)
3. All driving will be realistic (stopping at lights, stop signs, etc. while in town, reasonable pace off road)
4. Come prepared for a relaxing role-play cruise with great views and fun with friends!
Event Itinerary
1. Meet on Friends-Only Session up to 30 minutes before time of event on
RomanBrandt84
.
2. Meet at a gas station to get gas and snacks, then head to the Colors of Los Santos meet parking lot in the south east part of the map to wait for people to load in.
3. This is a good time to prep an outfit if you want!
4. We will head off road and explore the big, blank area of the map to our east, stopping for pics and to hang out and take in the views.
5. We’ll stop for food once we get back onto paved roads.
6. This is a slow cruise, so expect to take your time and admire the scenery! :smile:

Objective
Take a road trip to Raton Canyon to explore the dirt roads, take some pics, and hang out with your fellow HALPers! We'll stop for food and gas on the way, then we'll head to the canyon to get these trucks dirty. We'll do some sightseeing, go swimming, do a little bit of hiking, and attempt to climb Mt. Chiliad. Get ready for an adventure! An RP cruise through Raton Canyon in a caravan of Rancher XLs.
Preps
1. Necessary: Get a Rancher XL if you don’t have one.
This vehicle can be purchased from Southern San Andreas for $9k, but for those who like the hunt, they spawn mostly in the northern half of the map. If someone has their Rancher XL out in the city, others are also likely to spawn there. I’ve heard rumors of a few HALPers who plan to create temporary Rancher XL lots where you can grab one for free! Remember to put insurance on it at LSC.
2. Optional: Create a hiking outfit at any of the clothing stores around the map. You’ll want to be comfortable and stylish for this trip!

4. We will head up toward Ford Zancudo, stopping for gas and snacks along the way, and then over to the Great Ocean Highway.
5. We’ll stop at Hookie’s for food, and then head down into the canyon!
6. We’ll take it slow, stopping at lookout points and exploring the dirt roads.
7. Then, we’ll head over to the Chiliad Wilderness and eventually up to the top of Chiliad.
