QE Easter Edition
East London’s queer collective, Queer Edge, is set to host a brand new, special edition at Hackney Wick’s iconic Colour Factory on Saturday 19th April, bringing together innovators of the queer music scene – including Grace Sands, pioneer of the free-party movement, and JayJay Revlon, pioneer of the London Ballroom scene.
Known for creating inclusive spaces – from club nights and live music to panel discussions, community socials, and a daily CoWorking space – Queer Edge has become a vital movement in London’s LGBTQIA cultural landscape. Their mission is to create spaces where age, gender, and sexuality are no barrier to belonging, where you instead form real connection and love within the community. But this Easter weekend, they’re taking things to the next level, blending nightlife with innovation.
The line up:
- Grace Sands – pioneer of the UK’s free-party movement, which was fundamental in shaping the dance culture that we get to enjoy today. Grace’s free-party movement made space for everyone, welcoming people who were often marginalised by society, which aligns perfectly with the values of Queer Edge, to headline their Easter Edition.
- JayJay Revlon – pioneer and force behind London’s Ballroom scene, and father of the House of Revlon, JayJay plays a pivotal role in shaping the UK’s Ballroom community, bringing voguing to life! JayJay is hosting a voguing workshop to start the night, at 7pm, in Colour Factory’s garden.
- Ellie Prohan – Kiss FM radio host and DJ who forged her own path as a queer Middle Eastern woman.
- KaYa – DJ and owner of Affluenza Records, KaYa is all about having fun, high energy and underground blends.
- Perrinha – Perrinha’s sound is deeply rooted in 90s house music, with a heavy influence of funky breaks and vocals drawn from early disco and hiphop.
- Including B2B sets from Andy Avery & Bradley Skeng, Claude Knight & Noah Priddle, and Nick Clev & Sam Beach.
Kicking off the night with a VOGUING WORKSHOP at 7pm, followed by DJ sets until 2am, this promises high energy, big heart, and a whole lot of queer joy.
