n. A night of joy and dancing you’ll never forget
The annual celebration of Queer revelry, spearheaded by notorious Portland bisexual, VIVA the Sensation, returns June 6th with an all new lineup of incredible artists. This year’s party commemorates the release of “Want Me,” VIVA’s newest single, available for pre-order until June 1st, when the song will be available across all platforms.
Tickets are just $5 for general admission, $25 for the VIP pre-show meet and greet with VIVA the Sensation, during which the esteemed DJ Red Tide will set the vibe for an incredible night.
VIVA The Sensation will take the stage with an electrifying set of disco, edm, and pop songs, backed by accomplished Flow Artists from THEM Burlesque and Curbside Queens entertainment companies. This powerhouse has performed for ecstatic audiences at Pride festivals, concert halls, for arts organizations, and community events at Bowery Presents venues. It is a visually arresting show with pulsing rhythms and soaring vocals over a “pristine mix of genres and styles… the ‘untamed girl’ perspective in the lyrics is inspiring,” as radio host SPARRO\^/HAWK described in a recent review.
VIVA is not just a singer backed by dancers, but an accomplished performer, unafraid to use the whole stage and express the music with her own dance and theatre training. The show has moments of humor, of poignancy, and a sizzling aesthetic that audiences always remember.
Local legend Brit Martin is among the several shining participants of Discothique 2024, alongside sexy drag performers Aquarius Funkk and Carmelita Foxx, and flawless femmes The Sirens. This year, for the first time ever, the party will be hosted by the jewel of Congress st: the drag princess Vegadonna.
Discothique only comes once a year, don’t miss this decadent Pride season kickoff party!
