This is My Culture Christmas Rave fundraiser for Gaza Soup Kitchen!
Merry Christmas George - for nine years since you left the building on Christmas Day 2016 - we have celebrated you and everyone building a world of sexual freedom deep in the woods every Summer. This December, we're bringing your magic back, to continue building love, life and liberty for our powerful queer community.
WHEN - Saturday 13th December 2025 6pm - 5am
WHERE - The Distillery N17 - Unit 25, Mill Mead Industrial Estate, N17 9QU
WHAT - George Michael, our Patron Saint of ‘Fuck of This Is My Culture’ (TIMC) volunteered in a food bank, advocated against inequality and used his platform to challenge war and support a Free Palestine.
So, in this legacy, you are invited to our TIMC 12 HOUR BONANZA. For the night we are uniting with Place of War and provided with food by Baytna for Refugees. Join us for food, a discussion with the artists involved and followed by some of the UK’s finest DJ’s and anti-war artists.
We want to generate as much love and as much money for Gaza Soup Kitchen as possible. Locally led, globally supported. Gaza Soup Kitchen provides hot meals and clean water to Palestinians in Gaza facing deliberate starvation.
Please donate generously, rave hard and love even harder, until Palestine is Free. Merry Christmas to all our This is My Culture family. 2026 is our 10th anniversary, so there is much more to look forward to too.
TICKET PRICES
£10 Party tickets, £20 party, food and panel. Please also consider a ‘paying it forward’ ticket for someone without cash who would appreciate it - just buy them a ticket from the options. Also everyone is welcome to DONATE more to the movement here.
