Parties

We all know that no-one parties like the Queer community does, here is our chance to prove it! As a part of Midsumma 2013, there are a host of specialised and open parties for the niche and mainstream community. Kicking off with favorites T Dance and The Gold Party we launch into three weeks of thumping bass and hot nights. You can shake it on a boat, in the pool, covered in foam, with the carnies, on stage at the wet-jock competition, with the ladies of Las Vegas Showgirls, alongside gender illusionists or in celebration of the return of Closet parties! The choice is yours - see you there!
