Overview: (18+) Back for its fourth year! Nanaimo’s sober Pride dance is growing, and you’re invited. Club Soda is a beloved part of Pride Week for anyone who wants to dance, connect, and celebrate in a space that’s substance-free, low-pressure, and full of queer joy. Whether you’re sober, sober curious, in recovery, or just looking for a party without booze… this event is made for you. We are excited to host this year's dance in a beloved space, the Nanaimo Museum!
DJ Chris Bigelow kept the dance floor packed at HalloQueen and you can expect the same great music along with fun lighting, mocktails, snacks, and plenty of space to move, chill, or recharge. New this year - need a break from the dance floor or it just isn't your thing? Visit the sensory space, a quieter room where you will find activities such as crafts and games.
What this event is:
This is a sober indoor dance party held in a museum. Music will be played through a sound system, with volume set to energizing but not overwhelming levels. Lighting will be dynamic, but with no strobes or harsh effects. You’re welcome to dress up, dress down, stim, socialize, or take breaks as needed.
Accessibility:
Information coming soon!
Other Services: Water and food will be available on site. There is no interpretation or captioning at this event. There is a dedicated sensory support space and attendees can go outside and re-enter the space if needed.
Safe Space Commitment: Strictly substance-free; supportive environment. This event upholds Nanaimo Pride's Safe Space Directive, ensuring a respectful and inclusive environment for all attendees. Safe Space Crew will be onsite to provide support if needed.
Sensory Notes: Loud noise levels - amplified music, no strobes but some dynamic lights. Crowds and dancing.
