Lock & Key

The Bimbo Olympics are back for year two—a gloriously chaotic competition where bimbos, himbos, and thembos battle it out for gold at The Stud. Expect ridiculous challenges, fierce contestants, and a crowd that's here for the spectacle. Doors at 6pm, games start at 7pm.

Tuesday nights at The Stud have a reputation for a reason — WTF brings the kind of dance floor energy that makes you forget it's a weeknight. A rotating cast of DJs keeps things moving, the crowd is genuinely here to have fun (not perform), and there's something about dancing in a room full of your people that just hits different. This is where chosen family comes to reset and reconnect, one song at a time.

Truck is The Stud's weekly Wednesday night dance party where the focus is pure movement and sound — rotating DJs spinning everything from house to techno to whatever gets the floor moving. It's the kind of night where you show up at 9:30 and suddenly it's 2am and you've made three new friends and your shirt is soaked and you absolutely don't regret it. No pretense, just bodies, beats, and the kind of energy that only happens when a room full of queer people decides to dance like nobody's watching.

Friday nights at The Stud mean a packed dance floor, rotating DJs spinning everything from house to techno, and a crowd that actually knows how to move. This is where San Francisco's queer nightlife gets real — no pretense, just good music and better people. The Stud's been hosting nights like this since 1966, and Genre carries that legacy forward with the kind of energy that keeps you dancing until close.

Steam returns with the dark, seductive energy that's made it legendary at The Stud — pulsing tech house, an infamous play maze where shadows move and bodies connect, and a crowd that knows how to get lost in the night. Towels available at the door, complimentary coat check, 21+ only.

Truck is The Stud's midweek dance party built for people who actually want to dance — tight sound, rotating DJs who know how to read a room, and a floor that fills up with folks ready to move. It's the kind of night where the energy builds naturally, the music hits different, and you leave knowing exactly why you showed up on a Wednesday. 21+.
