HEDONIST - Queer Dance Festival
HEDONISM is BACK! Two immersive worlds. DJs, dancers, installations and hundreds of sweaty strangers making questionable decisions together in Brixton. Sat 20th Jun - 2-11pm, Brixton - S. LDN Three Spaces: TRIP - Psychedelic, house & dance. Walls that breathe. Zero rules. FADE - Dark, red, techno, trance, 140BPM. Lights that dip back until all that's left is sweat, bass, and the body next to you. COURTYARD - Sun, ciggies, flirty eye contact. LINEUP: Mickey RN, Musicklunatic, Select, Benji Hedonator, Kasaya, Perverse Cowboy, Darkwah, BolliBubbles, Zackito Lee, Gay Rage, RayRay No big headliners, never has been. HEDONIST is about new artists, unexpected sets, and a room that actually feels something and a crowd that believes nightlife should be participatory, playful and a little bit ridiculous. —————————— HEDONIST started as a queer art exhibition, then everyone stayed to dance. Born from queer f!tish artists, DIY exhibition-making and friendships forged on latex-clad dancefloors, what began as a scrappy idea for more space for queer artists, DJs, performers and creatives quickly became something much bigger. Then June 2023 happened. 300 of you joined us across two immersive worlds for 12 hours of music, performance, connection and glorious nonsense. It was hot. It was sweaty. It was joyful as hell. Then life got in the way. New jobs. New cities. New relationships. General chaos. Before we knew it, two years had passed. And somewhere along the way we found ourselves asking the same question: What happened to HEDONIST? So we did what any sensible people would do. We're bringing it back. Bigger. Stranger. Hotter. —————————— WHERE Bureau of Silly Ideas, In the heart of Brixton, a 5 min walk from the tube station, we bring you a day party you’ll be embarrassed to say you missed. New artists. Emerging performers. Unexpected moments. It's about creating a space where queer culture feels accessible, playful, creative and gloriously unserious. Whether you're a club kid, a creative, a dancefloor obsessive, a queer troublemaker or simply looking for your next favourite crowd, HEDONIST was built for participation, not observation. Get ready. We've missed you.
