CARABINERThursday 2nd May8pm-1am(doors at 7pm for a pre-drinks hour at the venue where solo queers are welcome and there will be lots of opportunities to make friends!)The Royal Vauxhall Tavern

Calling all dykes and daddies, enbys and newbies, brats and bottoms, Carabiner is your new queer club night with no dress code, no fuss, no frills, just good music and a room full of dykes.

Featuring performances from PRINX CHIYO and a DJ set from a soon to be announced queer DJ, expect a mix of campy, crowd-pleasing pop, R&B, and a bit of alternative sprinkled in for the former emo bois.

Dress up, dress down, come in full drag or wear your jeans and docs with your work kit stuffed in a tote bag, as long as you're comfy and feeling euphoric in your queerness you'll be welcome.

The RVT has step free access but has no disabled toilet. The nearest disabled toilet is in Vauxhall station next door. Please purchase an access ticket if you have access needs and someone will email you to check in and see what we can do to make you comfy on the night.

PLEASE NOTE: All bags and coats must be checked into the cloakroom because they become a safety hazard when left around the venue.

Further access details will be posted in a dedicated instagram post on @bigqueerpicnic

Carabiner is a night for queer women, trans and non-binary people. Please do not bring cis male guests.

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Show me the charities

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.

Theatre MAD
The Make A Difference Trust fights HIV & AIDS one stage at a time. Their UK and International grant-making strategy is based on five criteria that raise awareness, educate, and provide care and support for the most vulnerable in society. A host of fundraising events, including Bucket Collections, Late Night Cabarets, West End Eurovision, West End Bares and A West End Christmas continue to raise funds for projects both in the UK and Sub-Saharan Africa.
