Queer spaces have always been at the heart of club culture, shaping music, style and the dancefloor itself. In this conversation, artists RAEZA (Paris/Berlin), Bimini (London), Paurro (Mexico City) and angelboy (Amsterdam) come together to share how queer nightlife is evolving around the globe and what makes these spaces such a vital part of club culture.
A conversation guided by Charlie Robertson, also known by his drag persona Charlene Coco, on celebrating the creativity and forward-thinking spirit of queer club culture, and how to find your space as an artist or music professional and grow to your full potential. Learn how to find the right places to play, collaborate and support, and why cherishing and nourishing these spaces is essential for the future of club culture for not only the queer community, but also anyone consuming electronic music.
