Please note that this is a drop-in FREE event and tickets do NOT guarantee entry (and won't be checked at the door). The ticket registration is just a reminder for your own diary. Come early to avoid disappointment 🧛🏽♀️
🎤 At 9pm @georgeousmichael will honour gay London legend George Michael, while @faces_of_fortune will pay homage to a bi-con to be revealed at the event 👀
🎧 From 9.30pm @trojantyne_ will be on the decks with back-to-back bangers from our queerly beloveds, including Whitney Houston, SOPHIE, Prince, George Michael and more.
💅 Come dressed as your fave LGBTQ+ icon or camp legend. Stage, screen, queer liberation or beyond. Your own spins are very much encouraged!
If your icon has died, honour them as they lived; iconic looks are great! No zombie make-up, fake injuries or depictions of their death.
Don’t fancy coming as your icon? No problem. You’re welcome to do classic Halloween costumes: vampire, ghost, devil... You name it!
❌ Please be mindful of cultural appropriation ❌
👻 Fancy showing off your look? Our costume catwalk kicks off at 10:30pm, with a spooky prize for best costume. Strutting is optional, serving is encouraged.
