PROPAGANDA [SAT 5 APRIL]

Get ready for an epic night as THREE ALL-STAR DJs make their PROPAGANDA debut, alongside our resident DJ Jordan Eskra. This is the grand finale of our BIG GAY SUMMER, and we’re going all out!

FINAL RELEASE TICKETS: $39

Expect massive production, featuring LED screens, incredible visual artists, top-tier tech, and the best commercially available sound. The venue is stunning, with cheap drinks, plenty of chill-out space, and loads of toilets—everything you need for the perfect night out.

TRULY SAFE PARTYING 

Our TRULY SAFE PARTYING Policy has been very successful. This Saturday, our partners at Burnett Foundation Aotearoa and The NZ Drug Foundation are holding a 'Test yourself, test your drugs' session ahead of PROPAGANDA, 10am–3pm at the Burnett Centre (35 Hargreaves Street, St Marys Bay). Just turn up! It's free and confidential.

COMMUNITY TICKETS

Like all of our events this summer, we’re offering free community tickets and 50% off codes—just reach out if  price is a barrier but you still want to dance! 

And, it’s here to stay: all drag artists in full drag get free entry to our parties (unless specified otherwise). We love drag, and it’s been amazing this summer to see so many queens and kings be able to come and party after their gigs, or get dolled up for the dance floor!

DJs: 

DJ PHILME

Phil has been a fixture in New Zealand’s gay scene for 18 years, living and breathing the dance floor before taking over the decks five years ago. Since then he’s played gay parties in Auckland, Wellington, and Queenstown.

Known for his electrifying sets, he pumps out a fierce blend of House, Tech-House, Techno, and Circuit—driving basslines, hypnotic rhythms, and just the right amount of camp vocals to keep the energy soaring. 

Now, for the first time, he’s bringing his signature sound to PROPAGANDA. Get ready for a night of unapologetic beats and pure dance floor euphoria!

THROCAT

Throcat isn’t just spinning tracks—they’re spinning tales of joy, connection, and community. With residencies at Sapphic Sounds, Bassment, and Next Up, this DJ powerhouse knows how to command a crowd.

As a Base FM Wednesday night host, Throcat has honed their craft, bringing soulful beats and vibrant energy to the airwaves. Whether it’s a sultry house mix or a bassline that hits you right in the chest, Throcat’s sets are a celebration of queer, P.O.C. artistry at its finest.

BLUSH.MP3

One to watch within Tāmaki Makaurau's queer dance scene - BLUSH.MP3 is a selector, promoter, artist and superstar. Their sound is all-encompassing, genre bending and fast paced. This year they have played for Glass Half Full, Wash House, Cross St. Festival, Her Festival, GLOW, BASSMENT Local Roll Call and BFM’s Fancy New Band Show! Blush is also the co-founder of DOLLHOUSE - a new club night celebrating the queer community, specifically QTBIPOC, through global club music.

The goal for all of Blush's sets is simple: to make you feel hot, sexy, alive and free through good music, great blends and stunning energy!

SEE YOU ON SATURDAY NIGHT! 

We can't wait to be back—see you on the dance floor!
