VELVET COURT: a ren faire rave

The Velvet Court – a midsummer rite for the divine and defiant
on the final saturday of pride, beneath the hum of neon and history, we open the gates—a court not of kings, but of queers, of fae, of fire
a rave of ritual, revelry, resistance

after the sun has bowed, after the banners have waved, we descend into the underground—summoned by sound, sweat, and spellwork

dress code—opulence, fantasy, transformation
adorn yourself in truth and theater. cloaks and corsets, chainmail and lace, crowns and capes, etc

sound & spellwork—beats as blade and balm
— DJs conjure deep, ecstatic rhythm: pulsing techno, spellbound house, ballroom echoes, and bass that breaks open the night
— sound that hails the old gods and your higher self

rituals & offerings—devotion through art
— tarot in candlelight, flash tattoos
— elixirs, spirits, and sacred mischief at the bar
— quiet corners for rest, re-centering, and witnessing each other
