Fatt Projects‘ MOBILISE will celebrate their final Queer Power Party (for a while) in Birmingham on Saturday, March 2. This is the last MOBILISE that Fatt Projects currently have funding to host so they are inviting local LGBTQ+ people to join them for one final dance before they take a break to figure out MOBILISE’s future.
The MOBILISE Queer Power Party is a free, joyful and accessible sober dance party and silent disco held at The Exchange, Centenary Square, Birmingham. An inclusive event, MOBILISE was created specifically to empower people to dance, take up space, feel confident and celebrate themselves. MOBILISE is a party for anyone who has felt like they don’t belong in existing LGBTQ+ nightlife spaces; they are a pro-fat, pro-trans, pro-disabled, pro-women, anti-racist, alcohol free, pro-fabulous clubbing environment.
So, MOBILISE encourages you to “Get your headphones on and get ready to get your bodies moving, lower your inhibitions, and let loose through the power of queer joy.”
As always, this space provides step-free access, a dedicated quiet space, an alcohol-free cash bar service, plenty of comfortable seating, accessible gender inclusive bathrooms, private dressing spaces, and BSL interpretation. From 8-9pm, they also offer an optional social dance session lead by some of the MOBILISE artists to help partygoers get comfortable with some simple moves. A full access statement and venue information can be found on Fatt Projects’ website.
This final event will be hosted by creative producer and drag performer Fatt Butcher, and it will feature performances throughout the night from Drag Race UK’s Ginny Lemon, cabaret performer Cocoa Kink, and waaking and vogue dancer Eric Scutaro.
Free tickets can be reserved online now.
