Last time K.atou visited, we knew right away there would be a next one because it was such a vibe!!

After a massive celebratory week, we thought it’d be appropriate to bring back those eclectic sounds of electronic music and recharge with a good dose of fun and continue welcoming 2026 in style.

We’re beyond excited to welcome to tonight and bless this mess with you.

Important info for tonight:

FREE before 9. 🤘
$10 before 11pm
$15 after

See you on the dance floor 🪩

Tomorrow we bless this mess, again.

🙏We are thrilled to host these wonderful artists who have been representing everything we stand for and more… P.L.U.R.

🌞 It’s a pleasure to dance to them while they bring their best to the test on the decks and show respect to one of the cities where it all began.

👍🏼This for sure is the best party prior to the next party, guarantee. So don’t go broke trying to have a good time on Saturday. Instead, come dance & eat with us + have the best time!

🎫 Tickets available on RA [ALL DAY] so you can buy your ticket on the way to the party, or at the door. No need to bombard you with posts, you know what to do.

See you at Chemas! ❣️🪩

This is the only picture we took this weekend but we’d like to thank EACH and EVERYONE of you for being a part of such an amazing event our team pulled together. We couldn’t do it without you and your willingness to dance and bless this mess with us.

We also want to give a massive shoutout to our volunteers, vendors and collaborators and our FAVORITE brewery, for trusting our work and vision to make the dream work as a team!

On be half our BTM family and our daughters, Bada Bing and Bada Boom, we thank you from the bottom of our big gay hearts and look forward to the next one. 💕
