The LAD Fund Fundraiser is here!!! And taking over Rich Mix, wheelchair accessible venue, on Friday 30 August.
This is a fundraiser to support performers dropping out of Pride gigs with ties to genocide in Palestine. All proceeds from tickets go to the fund.
❤️🔥 We are a strike fund by the community FOR the community. This ain’t just possible, it’s necessary. We will continue to support each other while fighting for Palestinian liberation and refusing to be complicit to genocide.
Led by our dashing hosts, CHIYO and Harddeep Singh, we’ll be bringing you the hottest line up of drag kings, performers, DJs and art vendors.
