Queer House Party is an award-winning LGBTQIA+ collective & club night. It was started by friends, co-organisers, and DJs who all worked in frontline jobs and recognised the need for a safe and radical space to come together as a queer community. Since then, they have built a huge, dedicated following through a commitment to putting accessibility and politics to the front of their parties, consistently campaigning across a number of issues, and profiling grassroots activists and artists in their events. Each member of QHP is involved in numerous artistic and political projects in addition to the collective, and this brings huge energy and raw power to QHP as a platform for shifting the narrative around queer nightlife spaces from commercialism to radical transformation and connection.
The night selling out every event they’ve put on at iconic London venues including Colour Factory and the Garage. In addition to their own parties, they’ve brought radical Queer excellence to festivals and club nights across the UK, and are looking forward to a huge summer of championing grassroots performers and accessibility in spaces that have traditionally not been welcoming to marginalised and/or non-normative queerness.
The performances feature a mix of local and internationally recognised Queer talent that pushes boundaries whilst always bringing incredible energy. DJs and co-directors of the collective, Harry Gay, Wacha and passer, have featured on numerous radio shows (with mixes going out on BBC Radio 1 and BBC Radio 6) and regularly feature in lineups across the UK. Taali is a notable presence on the gogo and hosting scene, particularly within the black queer community. They’re renowned for their unique blend of a huge range of dance music, from House, Garage, Pop, and Disco to Global Club, Jersey Club, Ballroom, Baltimore and Footwork. The DJs refer to their style as ‘Bangers and Trash’, and it never fails to get the dancefloor pumping.
QHP continues to create a space that is not only accessible for the whole LGBTIQ+ community but puts issues they care about to the front. Mostly, they think raving and kicking off go hand-in-hand, and they’re here to show you how.

CODE OF CONDUCT
This is a pure Joyful LGBTQIA+ centred space.
We open our doors to everyone who is nice and respectful of the space and our community; radical free thinkers, artists, creatives, kinksters, left-wingers, socialists, environmentalists, supporters of equal rights and allies to the LGBTQIA+ community are welcome.
We do not tolerate racism, transphobia, homophobia, biphobia, xenophobia, ableism, ageism, body shaming, slut shaming, or misogyny.
Ask for consent before touching anyone. This includes touching hair and surgical scars. Check in and ask for pronouns. Be respectful and nice. Let people dance and talk in peace if they want to. Everyone deserves a night without being hassled or objectified. No means no.
Please do not enter the building if you do not agree or can not abide by the above. Have fun, go wild, but respect each other's boundaries.
If you ever have an unwanted interaction or microagggresion, please inform a member of our team on the night and we will deal with it straight away. Also, look out for each other. This is a DIY community space, so lets also check in on each others welfare.
