Drag 4 Dogs: Bloom & Bark Edition

When: Saturday, 13 September, 6pm 'til late

Where: Our Local, 117 Kloof Street, Gardens

About the event: Time to sit, stay, and slay for our furry friends with this all-inclusive event.

Tons-of-fun meets heart at the beautiful Our Local on Kloof Street. Together, we’ll be raising support for Mdzananda Animal Clinic, a Khayelitsha-based vet and shelter making a real difference for animals in need.

The evening’s treats? Dazzling performers, DJs spinning groovy tunes, you dancing (maybe even for the first time in heels), drinks flowing, laughter, fun and games, and, of course, sharing it all with your best people.

Bring your besties, boyfriends, girlfriends, husbands, wives! Bring them all! Just no dogs allowed.

What to expect:

  • Red carpet arrival. Keep an eye out for the paparazzi!
  • Welcome drinks by Absolute Vodka (darling, you’ll need it)
  • Performances by Kat Gilardi, Vida Fantabisher, and Manila Von Teez!
  • Megan Marks, Archy & Eliyah on the decks
  • Best Dressed parade & prizes (See below to get a glimpse of what's up for grabs!)
  • Plus other yummy treats (best you behave!)
  • Complimentary entry to the official afterparty at Biblio, 50 Hout Street

Dress Inspiration: Spring Drag Fantasy

The key is theatrical exaggeration. Wigs, makeup, and outfits that are larger than life, sparkly, and bold.

Every ticket sold helps Mdzananda Animal Clinic continue their incredible work in Khayelitsha who delivers life-changing service, daily.

Tickets are R300 per person, book yours at Quicket.

Down to Earth Market

When: Every Wednesday from 4 pm to 9 pm and Saturdays from 9 am to 3 pm
