They DJ Competition: How to win a set at Colour Factory
It's DJ Competition Season! Hot off the heels of the LSA x New World Festival DJ Competition we have another incredible opportunity to win a DJ set! This time, LSA have partnered with They to offer the chance to win a DJ set at Colour Factory in Hackney Wick. Arguably, one of the coolest venues in London right now!
They is a queer party for the LGBTQI community and its allies. They hold regular events at many of the UK's best venues and just announced their biggest night yet at Colour Factory. CF is a medium sized club with a warehouse rave aesthetic and huge booming sound system. It's located at the epicentre of the East London rave scene and hosts events for a spectrum of communities and music styles.
They will take over Colour Factory on the 31st of August 2024 for an open air day party 2pm-9pm. LSA favourite Michelle Manetti will hit the decks along with bastions of the scene Ross Anderson, Suzie Mac, Vivian Bam Bam and more. There will be go-go dancers, make-up by Maniacc, food and good times! Tickets start from only £6 and are available on RA.
Michelle Manetti is one of the darlings of the London queer scene often headlining the best raves in the city. Her own event, Fèmmme Fraîche, is one of the cities best club nights and communities for queer women in electronic music, non-binary, trans and LGBTQI DJs. Her DJs sets are pure energy, all thrillers and no fillers!
To celebrate this epic event They have launched a DJ competition to find aspiring new talent. They are looking for a House music DJ who can create the perfect warm-up for this major event. Think pop-remixes, disco bangers and floor fillers!
