Step into a world where the forbidden is celebrated, the extravagant is encouraged, and the taboo is just part of the fun.

The Devil’s Ballroom is not just a party, it is a feast for the senses, a playground for the adventurous, and a safe haven for those who dare to push boundaries. We welcome all identities, orientations, and expressions. 

This is a night where you can be your most daring self, experience the tantalising performances, and let your inhibitions fall away.

We have such sights to show you at the 8th instalment dedicated to the further regions of experience.

An all night social event with entertainment from NZ's top taboo performers including burlesque, circus, drag, music, ritual, art displays, and interactive elements.
