Big Gay Afterparty

TOTAL SELL-OUT 2025! 50% OF THE ALLOCATION ALREADY SOLD IN MAY 2026—BOOK AS EARLY AS YOU CAN!

Queer, chic and outrageous– you're invited to the biggest, gayest party at the Fringe (fun straights allowed).

The award-winning show makes its triumphant return for two nights only, daring you to indulge in the hottest pop-up cabaret experience on Cowgate.

Curated by 'demonic David Bowie' Aidan Sadler, a selection of the most electrifying and scandalous performers at the festival awaits you.

From 11pm until we stop dancing, expect a fully immersive, joyous, and enthralling cabaret experience like no other.

★★★★★ “The acts slay until the break of day, and you’re invited right into the heart of this soulfully compiled and radically offbeat cabaret experience.” BingeFringe

This is a clubnight where artists, dreamers and free spirits dance and mingle until the wee hours, while an exceptionally-curated roster of the top cabaret talent at the Festival dazzle, delight and tittilate. Expect burlesque, drague, dance, DJs, vocalists, and much more besides. Previous acts have included everything from a Shrek burlesque performance (Swamplesque) to an experimental party tap group all the way from Japan (SushiTap), to drag queens, circus artists, and so much more besides.

In the unlikely event that there are tickets remaining, tickets will be £20 on the door, and in order to maintain a safe and enjoyable environment for everybody places are strictly limited, so advance reservation is strongly recommended.

Dress to impress! We'll have a roaming photographer ready to catch you looking your best!

Bring a gang! The night is best enjoyed surrounded by the people you love, and the night is welcoming and inclusive for everybody.
