"We have ourselves a NEW HOME!" Iconic queer party group returns to Vancouver
It took a few months but a beloved queer community has found a new space to throw iconic and memorable parties in Vancouver.
In February, The Warehouse at Eastside Studios hosted a “closing party” to say farewell and close out an era after five years at its 550 Malkin Avenue location.
After a toast to all the great times, the group said it would continue to “collectively manifest a future full of opportunity for even more exciting alternative queer spaces!”
Fast forward to this month, it seems their manifestation came to fruition as the group announced its return with a new Eastside Studios event space at The Birdcage.
“The gay gods giveth and the gay gods taketh away⌠but this time, baby she GIVETH!” the group announced. “Queer fam, we have ourselves a NEW HOME!! The gay gods have us GAGGED!”
A “Lift Off” party will be held at the new venue at 44 W 4th Avenue on April 21.

“Our first event is not only a kick-off and welcome to our brand new baby, but also a fundraiser to help us make this space *chef’s kiss* damn near perfect for you!” an Instagram post reads.
“With this outstanding news comes a catch! Every sexy second-hand warehouse comes with a sky-high to do list with pretty juicy price tags.”
Tickets will be sold on a sliding scale and will go towards supporting the new queer event space by Eastside Studios.
You can purchase tickets in advance or at the door.
