Locked Groove

Drag roulette meets live mixing in this high-stakes showdown between divas and a DJ. Act One is all theirs—divas pick their songs and own the stage. Act Two flips the script: the DJ chooses from three preselected tracks for each performer while mixing it live, and the divas have to make it work. It's improv, it's unpredictable, and it's the kind of chaotic energy that makes for the best nights.

A night of fresh local talent across drag, pole dance, and burlesque — nine performers bringing different energies to the Cherry stage at Kremwerk. New acts, new faces, and an emcee in Lavender l'Estrange who knows how to keep the night moving. Friday night at 7:30pm is the perfect time to catch artists you haven't seen before.

Four vinyl selectors, two back-to-back pairings, four hours of underground house and electronic music that lives in the space where jazz chords, funky sub bass, and forward-thinking grooves collide. Bobby Ghanoush and Noah Coinflip's residency gets special this month — Carranza joins Noah, Al.flot joins Bobby, and the Timbre Room becomes the place to be for anyone who knows the difference between a drop and a moment.

La Krem spotlights the next generation of dance music talent from LA and beyond. This month's lineup brings three forward-thinking electronic producers to Cherry for a night of innovative house and dance sounds. Akumen, Andy Oro, and CTRL.MP3 represent the future of the PNW dance scene and beyond.

D'Mon's 27th birthday bash brings together some of Seattle's finest drag performers—ISSA MAN, TOMMIE DARLING, CAMERO, PUPUSA, DUCKHUNT, PIXIE, and D'MON—for a night that's equal parts celebration and community care. All door sales go directly to DJ Pepp3r4nne, a beloved Black trans community member facing eviction. Come for the performances, stay for the cause, and help support one of our own.

Seattle's drag kings, things, and beings throw it back to the Y2K era with performances to the music that ruled 2000–2010: pop, emo, hip-hop, indie sleaze, nu metal, and all the gloriously questionable stuff in between. Think TRL, Limewire, low-rise jeans, and eyeliner on everyone. Hosted by Ceasar Hart, this is the drag king show that gets messier and more fun every last Saturday of the month. Come hot, come messy, come ready to party like it's 2005 and nobody's recording it.
