Cruise is an industrial themed celebration of testosterone inspired by the golden era of gay underground culture in the early 70s. Gear-up, strut a vintage look or strip down to your jock and disappear into the dark, sweaty dance floor. Dance and grind to the dark seductive music of guest DJs or head straight to the newly expanded Dark Room.- Village Studios is a social space for community and culture – uplifting people through music . The venue is in Davie Village.

- Dance and sing like everyone and no one is watching. From pride anthems to high energy, death dropping performances seamlessly mixed into dancey vocal house sets… Icons will be the gayest, brightest, and most fabulous Vanccouver pride party you have ever been to.
