SUMMARY:Queen and Queer Ottawa
DESCRIPTION:Hey Queens of Ottawa 🌈🌈 \n\n\n\nAfter the HUGE success of our first edition\, and due to popular demand\, we’re coming back stronger — and this time in a whole new space! \n\n\n\nWARNING: BIG PARTY AHEAD!! As you know\, at Queen & Queer\, we love to do things BIG. So\, exceptionally\, we’ve booked the entire building just for you!  \n\n\n\nWhat to expect?  \n\n\n\n2 rooms and 2 dancefloors  \n\n\n\nThat means: 2 times more energy\, 2 times more fun\, 2 times more DJs… and 2 times more queerness! \n\n\n\nON THE LINEUP 🔉 \n\n\n\nMain room: House and Dance  \n\n\n\nSecond room: Latino\, Afro and Urban beats \n\n\n\nYou got it… we’re super excited to bring the Queen & Queer vibe back to your city! 😍 \n\n\n\nTickets sold out super fast the first time\, so if you missed our first party — hurry up! \n\n\n\n Let’s go les lesboqueer! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ We’re counting on you to OCCUPY THE SPACE! \n\n\n\nWHO ARE WE? \n\n\n\nFor those who don’t know us yet\, QUEEN & QUEER is the story of two friends who decided in 2021 to create Dance Parties for LGBTQ2SIA+ women in Montreal… all in a safe and welcoming space. Today\, QUEEN & QUEER has become the largest Lesbo-Queer party on the Montreal scene\, attracting a growing community. After Sherbrooke and Quebec City\, we’ve chosen Ottawa as our next destination\, and we can’t wait to meet you again! \n\n\n\nOUR MISSION \n\n\n\nBeyond creating festive and safe spaces for the Lesbo-Queer community and their allies\, our mission is to highlight the talent of female artists\, whether they’re DJs\, dancers\, or from the circus arts community. \n\n\n\nMUSIC IS THE ANSWER \n\n\n\nQUEEN & QUEER parties are safe spaces prioritizing LGBTQ2SIA+ women\, non-binary people\, and trans folks. Allies are welcome too! We have a zero-tolerance policy for any form of discrimination: homophobia\, sexism\, transphobia\, racism\, or harassment have no place at our events. Our events are recognized for celebrating diversity and promoting inclusion. Whether you’re 20 or 60 years old\, and no matter your cultural background\, you’ll find your place with us.
