The Cheek with DJ RÍ

After a three-year hiatus, The Cheek makes its monthly return in a new home: the Ballroom at The Grand Social. The Cheek is a queer-led, inclusive club night built on two ideas: the Soft and the Daring.

THE SOFT is the energy of the space. Connection, community, and being in the moment. THE DARING is what you do with it. For this new chapter, the room itself becomes part of the experience. The DJ booth will be positioned on the balcony, opening up the floor below as a fully shared space under the lights. Take up space. The stage is yours.

Sonically, expect a high-energy, open-format soundtrack moving through house, electronic beats, and dancefloor throwbacks, shaped in real time together by the DJ and the crowd. We encourage you not to use your phones on the floor (unless your best pal is absolutely serving and wants you to capture it).

At a time when nightlife spaces are under pressure, accessibility matters. Tickets are €5 online or €10 on the door.

The Cheek is for queer people and allies. For anyone who wants to dance and express freely. If you are here for some fierce beats, that classic Friday night energy, and a shared night on the floor, this night is for you.
