What makes Boum stand out
Boum sees itself as an inclusive place to dance with a clear stance against sexism and discrimination. Alongside DJ nights with mixed music, the programme includes drag shows, performances by queer artists and comedy. Entry is cheap and the crowd mixed. If you expect a classic gay club with an all-male crowd, this isn’t it.
Programme
During the week and at the weekend, DJ sets, drag shows with queens and kings, concerts and comedy nights alternate. Current dates are on the Facebook page.
A good fit if you …
- want to dance without paying much for entry
- like drag shows and queer performances
- are looking for a mixed, inclusive place
Not ideal if you …
- are looking for a men-only bar
