Your guide to Culture Night 2016

Qulture Night Block Party
Hit up the Maverick from four til ten for a free event that showcases an international selection of queer arts and culture as well as an abundance of homegrown talent. The open air party begins on Union Street where you can witness Amsterdam’s Lady Galore and Manchester’s Cheddar Gorgeous performing live alongside The Voice Bear & Marty Byrne, Queens of the Queer Quarter, DJ C-Boy and Jamie Baird, all hosted by Lady Portia DI’Monte.
Cheddar Gorgeous will also be manifesting a feast prior to her evening performance. This will see the diva “installed on-stage” and she invites those in attendance to eat from her fruit banquet and look on as she paints and transfigures herself into Pomona, the goddess of fruitful abundance.
After the success of Belfast Pride earlier in the year the Qulture Nighht Block Party looks to be an excellent illustration of the extravagance and flamboyance of queer culture.
