Unicorn Returns Capitol Hill carnival bar set to reopen after three-month closure

Unicorn Seattle will reopen on October 30, perfectly timed for Halloween weekend, after a three-month closure due to a damaging fire. The fire, which destroyed the neighboring Post Options business, led to community support for local establishments. Unicorn experienced extensive smoke and water damage, with repairs taking weeks to complete, prompting a fundraiser to assist affected staff and performers. The bar will introduce changes to its lineup, including discontinuing the Mimosas Cabaret, a decision that disappointed many fans. Unicorn's management acknowledged the difficulties of the prolonged closure and the tough choices made in response.

Despite these adjustments, the bar plans to celebrate its 15th Hilloween with a refreshed appearance. The reopening is significant for the Pike/Pine nightlife scene, especially during Hilloween, a peak time for local businesses. Unicorn is located at 1118 E Pike, inviting the community back for festivities and celebrations.
