Ginger's Slightly Feral Christmas Party - Hamilton

Ginger’s Pop-Up Kirikiriroa Hamilton
Sat 28 November | 7pm to 12.30am | Hamilton CBD
Afterpay available at checkout.

Ginger’s is a national multi award-winning lesbian pop-up that travels the country doing the things we actually want to do: events, bush camps, boat parties, retreats and a global lesbian podcast. We’re lesbian-led, FLINTA* inclusive, and welcoming to anyone who’s new or still figuring it out. If this feels like your people, it is.

Hamilton, it’s Christmas, your cat has had enough of you, and you’ve been “meaning to get out more” since March. This is that. Santa’s coming, and she’s heard things about you...

The Venue
Secret until the week of the event. It’s in the heart of Hamilton CBD and easy to get to.

The Night

3 Minute Mates
Three minutes with a stranger. In lesbian time that’s basically a second date, so pace yourself. Make a friend, find your person, or at least come away with a story. Hosted at the beginning of the night.

Butch Santa’s Grotto
Butch Santa has been training for this all year. Sit on her knee, get the photo, and take a present from her sack.

Ugly Jumper or T-Shirt Comp
Wear the ugliest Christmas jumper or t-shirt you can find. A reindeer with a weird face, jingle bells, something your nan gave you with a straight face. Butch Santa and her elves are judging and they have strong opinions.

Naughty or Nice Wall
Write down something you did this year and pin it under Naughty or Nice. U-Hauled someone on date two? Still in the group chat with your ex? Told your mum it was “just a flatmate”? Anonymous, so be honest. We’ll all be reading every one.

A Pop-Up Within the Pop-Up
A special guest is setting up shop for the night. Your skin might thank you, your mum might not.

Fernando’s Taco Truck
Fernando’s will be selling yummy kai all evening, so you can line your stomach before the rainbow bar gets involved.

DJ, dancefloor and rainbow bar
We’ve seen what Hamilton does to a dancefloor and we’ve made our peace with it.

Coming solo?
This happens at our events all the time, and it’s completely okay to be nervous. We’ve got you. We can connect you with other solo goers before the night so you walk in knowing a few people. Just message us and ask.

Accessibility + Safety
