CLUB NIGHTS

Our club events celebrate who we are from the music, self expression on the Kali stage, and a warm welcome. It’s where Bollywood meets Hollywood on the dancefloor, now across the UK, and sometimes in collaboration with other club partners such as Duckie Daytimers.

We started with monthly club nights where you could be assured of a warm welcome, a safe LGBTQ+ space which celebrates South Asian heritage. We’ve seen members grow and become famous on the Kali stage.

COLLABORATIONS

We also share our music and celebratory power at landmark venues with collaborations at eg, BFI Flare, Victoria & Albert Museum, Tate, Pride events, corporate events.
