The event featured 5 female DJs playing UKG, DNB and techno across two floors, as well as an accompanying art gallery and artist’s alley.
The exhibit theme was ‘Good Girls Are Bad Girls That Never Get Caught’ and explored female experiences within subculture spaces and the tension between conformity and rebellion.
The event sold out on the night, reaching capacity at 275.
