COTTAGE | 15 November @ Coroner’s Court, Bristol

Get ready for friction, connection and release. Cottage returns to the cavernous former mortuary that is the Coroner’s Court, for a night of cruising, dancing and queer communion. Expect bathhouse bravado, disco warmth, Italo heat, throbbing techno and darkroom intimacy in a space built for play and transformation.

Sissy Boy Tears
Cottage Club resident and Head booker is who you want booting up the energy. Think big pop flare meets underground queer dance floor tension and the occasional bit of subversive charge.

J.Aria
J.Aria is one of the driving forces of London’s queer underground, a resident DJ at Adonis and Dalston Superstore. Their sets are theatrical and emotional; a dynamic blend of house balladry, acid edge, and sensual tension. Whether building from a warm groove into full-throttle euphoria, or pulling things back for a moment of vulnerability, J.Aria crafts a narrative on the dance floor that feels intensely personal while still connecting the crowd.   


Someone Sunny
Someone Sunny is a rising selector bringing warmth, groove and uplifting energy. Their sets lean into shimmering disco, deep house and rich melodic textures, always with an undercurrent of intimacy and emotional momentum. They’ve performed at spaces like Dalston Superstore, Joyride, Venue MOT and Twisted HQ, and pop up often on NTS and Rinse.

Why This Night Matters

Cottage isn’t just a club night. It’s a queer space for connection, exploration, anonymity and play where consent, safety and presence are built into the fabric of the event.  

Coroner’s Court provides the raw, characterful backdrop with its industrial peeling textures, high ceilings, spiral staircases, and a dark, transformable environment ideal for getting lost in the beat.

EVENT FAQ

While Cottage is a space that centres cis and trans men, we warmly welcome non-binary folks who feel aligned with gay male culture, masculinity, or the energy of this night. We’re not here to police identity, we’re here to create a space that feels good, respectful, and fun. If this particular vibe doesn’t resonate, our sister brands like @climaxclique_ and @clubloveltd offer broader, more fluid experiences that might be a better fit. Wherever you land, we’re glad you’re here.

Dress to connect: leather, rubber, harnesses, jocks, sport gear, PVC, pup, lycra, minimal fetish wear. Phones stay in your pocket - Cottage is built on anonymity, presence, and respect.
