This night is all about celebrating our incredible performers, their artistry, cosmic creativity and star-level performances!

A one night Probe membership is included in your ticket price! We’ll still ask you to fill out a sign up form, show ID, and sign a waiver. You can always sign up for a full membership on our site here or at Probe.

Choose your comfort level and participate in a consent focused show—wear a provided glow stick to indicate you are comfortable with performers interacting with you during their numbers, and sit in the front rows! Alternatively, sit in the back rows without a glow stick for an interaction-free show.

Galactic Gala is happy to say that we pay every performer a guaranteed amount, however tips are still highly encouraged as all the performers put so much into these numbers. For ease, tip jars for each performer will be available. Feel free to tip the performer directly or utilize the tip jars throughout the show. Bring those $5 bills!! Miss Diagnosis will also have a square reader for credit/debit tips—to be split among all performers.

Tickets are available on a sliding scale to promote inclusivity and accessibility. We offer limited “supported” tickets at a lower price for community members who might otherwise be unable to attend. Please choose the ticket price that makes this event accessible to you. If you’d like to support event accessibility, consider purchasing a “benevolent” ticket, which helps subsidize lower-price options. All ticket types provide the same access to the event.

At Probe, inclusivity is at the heart of everything we do. We welcome all individuals of all sexual orientations, genders, and identities. Our aim is to create an environment where everyone feels respected, valued, and free to express themselves authentically. Our venue is wheelchair accessible, with an elevator available. Our goal is to provide an accessible, inclusive space. If you have any questions or have specific accommodation requests, please reach out to us.
