MUSE N°001: R&B, Hip-Hop & Afro Rhythms at GRIO
About this Event
Vancouver functions haven’t been giving what they’re supposed to give, so we locked in and created the night we actually wanted to attend.
MUSE is a women-led nightlife experience built around sound, beauty, art and desire. Six hours of old-school and new-school R&B, Hip-Hop, Afro House and Afro rhythms, with live performances and beauty activations happening throughout the night.
This is the first MUSE. Consider this your invitation to get dressed, bring your people and be part of it from the beginning.
Women set the energy. Everyone is welcome.
WHAT’S WAITING INSIDE
Four DJs. Two rooms. Pole performances. Flash tattoos. Complimentary tooth gems. A beauty bar. Functional mocktails. A full bar. VIP tables. Plenty of reasons to stay longer than you planned.
WITH SOUNDS FROM
RAEDIAMENDZ
SAANZ
DJ BOMBAE

From slow, sexy R&B and throwback Hip-Hop to Afro House and percussion-led rhythms, the music will build throughout the night. Come early enough to catch the full journey.

THE DRINK SITUATION
The full bar will be open all night.
Not drinking? Taking a break? Simply want something that does more than taste pretty? MUSE will also feature a limited menu of functional mocktails created around different moods and ingredients.
This is also the beginning of something bigger. Your feedback will help shape a future alcohol-alternative beverage brand currently being developed behind the scenes.
