MAN UP: KING FLING!

MAN UP: KING FLING!

SATURDAY NOVEMBER 26

This event is being held on the stolen, ancestral territories of the Musqueam, Skxwú7mesh-ulh, and Tsleil-Waututh nations. As we live and organize queer space as settlers on these lands, we have an obligation to continuously work to repair harms perpetrated upon Indigenous communities, presently and historically. Settler colonialism has brought (and continues to bring) untold violence to these lands, via unlawful resource extraction, racism in medical and foster care systems, and the intergenerational trauma of residential schools. One way we will strive to give back to and support these communities is by donating a portion of proceeds from this event to the Indian Residential School Survivors Society.

CALLING ALL FANS OF DRAG KINGS & THINGS! Man Up is harkening back to its roots, and bringing you some good old fashioned KING ENERGY!

This month we're bringing back that fluttery-chest feeling, that high school heartthrob crush vibe, that doodle pad in humanities class, when your little baby gaydar was yearning for a queer date to the dance...

We’re getting hunky, funky, faggy, and braggy!! From full butch realness to flamboyant feminine!

Drag kings come in all shapes, sizes, styles, and genders… just take a look at this lineup!!!!!

BUDDY SYSTEM:

The Buddy System is a grassroots effort to combat rape culture and enhance the safety of our queer events. CONSENT IS SEXY -- AND MANDATORY! Buddies will be wearing **NEON T-SHIRTS**. Our Buddies are NARCAN trained, and are carrying sealed water bottles, condoms, lube, granola bars, tampons, and more. They will run interference if someone is receiving unwanted attention, can help folks in need find a way home, and generally serve as go-to support people should any problems arise.
