Strapped In
POSTPONED
**APRIL’S SHOW IS POSTPONED**
$8 cover | 21+ | 10pm-2am | show at midnight
You showed up for us at our January resurrection in a BIG way, so this thing is quarterly now, folks! If you were there, YOU DID THAT! If you weren’t, LET’S DO THIS!
Strapped In is a queer party for the rest of us.
The world is a divisive, hard place to live right now — and queer spaces aren’t immune. Strapped In is about creating a culture of welcome through queer nightlife — consider it a love letter, written by and for all who show up.
(More about what Strapped In stands for at the end of this post!)

** Strapped In strives to be a body-positive, sex-positive, all-gender space working to minimize oppressive forces of racism, misogyny, transphobia, and the like. We need your help with that! Please keep yourself and others accountable. Consent is mandatory—ask before touching, and only yes means yes. Reach out to a member of the Funhouse Lounge staff or someone involved in the event if you need help or feel unsafe!
Venue is ADA Accessible, though it may be difficult to navigate hallways/doorways with some mobility devices. Please reach out to Funhouse Lounge first with specific questions (they know the venue best!), but don’t hesitate to contact Sugarpill!
STRAPPED IN IS…
QUEER
All of us who produce, perform in, DJ, and gogo at Strapped In are queer as fuck. Most of us are trans. We’re creating the world we want to live in.
KIND
The world is a hard place. The queer community isn’t immune to that, but it shouldn’t be that way. It’s difficult enough for people like us, so don’t treat each other like shit. We welcome each other, and together we respect the night.
SEXY
We say it often, and we mean it — kindness is sexy. Queer sexuality shouldn’t be taboo. Several folks have told us that Strapped In is one of the queerest nights in town, and the first public event they felt comfortable wearing a jockstrap to. Our bodies — all of them — are beautiful. Our love — all of it — is beautiful. We — all of us — are beautiful.
IN PROGRESS
This night exists because there’s something missing from queer nightlife. We don’t claim to know exactly what that is. We provide easy opportunities for feedback and are ready to grow with you.
