Saturday 2nd March
After La Dame Blanche
12.00 am - 4.00 am
At The Jam Jar, Bristol
Coming with a very firey line-up that will make you dance nonstop to the best selection of Afrobeats, Neo Perreo, Reggaeton, Bashment, Dancehall, Dembow, EDM & Urban Bangerz. Bringing a sexy twist to the scene, blending booty-shaking beats with explosions of colour, sound and expression of Afro-Latinx Caribbean culture.
“We advocate for cultural representation, appreciation and empowerment through music, movement and community. This is a cute judgement-free safe space for all queens and QPOC babes to be unapologetically themselves and to fully express themselves on the dancefloor.”
Expect the usual wide range of Popola’s queer tropical pxssy DJs, gogos and MCs bringing the fierce femme energy throughout the night.
Popola is dedicated to acknowledging injustices faced by displaced and marginalised communities.
In a land historically known for being systematically power-oriented, they hold an undeniable dedication to inclusion. Advocating for the equitable treatment of underprivileged and underrepresented people is central to their mission.
