WELCOME TO THE ALPHABET SOUP! Which letter are you?

🔠🌟

DRESS AS YOUR FAVOURITE LETTER, so you can truly be a part of this soup. Combine with other letters to make WORDS

Every hour is brought to you by a different iconic letter, and a different iconic DJ keeping the soup churning.

We are BACK AT BUDDIES for another all-night party. Tallulah’s Cabaret is the heart of the soup, where we will dance all night to an all-star lineup of queer DJs under an installation of hanging balloon letters. We’re also activating the antechamber and the upstairs mezzanine with arts and crafts, scrabble tiles, friendship bracelets, a ploungey ambient zone, truth or dares, and more surprises to deepen your connection to the alphabet.

Downstairs in the lower lobby, BRAWK WARD will be serving actual Alphabet Soup! Come grab a snack while supplies last.

🔡Find some letters, unscramble them, spell a word, meet a new lover.🔠

WISHING WELL is a queer witchy danceparty ritual. A divine feminine space for f@gs, freaks, and friends. Look for the WISHING WELLS in the bathrooms: spell your wishes wisely. All your wishes will come true.
