CUDDLE SPACE: this isn't your average club night... we've created the perfect soft cuddle space where you can kick off your shoes and continue enjoying the music while getting a bit closer to your dance floor flirt, with consent of course.

íPRINCIPLE: 'the future is Crystal Queer!' We're celebrating queer pride through expressing ourselves freely. We're rolling out the rainbow carpet so here is your excuse to wear that outfit your ex calls 'extra', break out the fake blood, gothic and glitter to send halloween off in style. We're not holding back, and neither should you, (unless you want to because hey- you do you!) We have selected acts and performers that embody this celebration best. The stage is theirs to blend and bend, be kinky, queer, loud and proud. So don't be shy, wear that harness or show some skin, just be yourself and you'll fit right in!

What to wear!? This is a costume party darling, get out your gothic extravagant ballgown, that zombie wedding dress in tatters, your scariest make-up (if you want!) No one is judging here, so be colorful, outrageous, glamorous, slutty, kinky, cute, wear too many sparkles, show those nipples, we love you for it!

An inclusive event: your gender, sexual identity, ethnicity do not matter, all humans aged 18+ are welcome and encouraged to dress up for an amazing night in a safe setting. Come as you are, or take on the persona you've always wanted to try. This is sure to be a night of suprises and adventure into a colorful world where all are celebrated and respected. We have the best security team in Aarhus ready to assist if anyone needs help.

Not for profit: This event is all about supporting queer artists and shining a light on the amazing passion and talent they bring to the stage, 100% of your ticket and merchandise sales goes to paying them for their time and ensuring the future of queer performers in our city.

All bar sales directly support the Institute for [X]; a culture, business and education platform founded in 2009. It is an independent and not-for-profit culture association arising from citizen initiatives providing the space where freedom and creativity for all thrives daily.
