Climax & Vayne with DJ Airdy

Friday nights at The Rising start with a free drag-cabaret set from Climax and Vayne, then keep the lights on with a DJ from 11pm. Expect high looks, comedy, live entertainment and a friendly queer-pub atmosphere, with happy hour available earlier in the evening. The cabaret begins at 9pm and the listed event runs until 1am. Entry is free. It is 18+. You can reserve a table, but an OutSavvy reservation guarantees venue access rather than a particular seat. The Rising has a step-free entrance, wheelchair access and accessible seating, although its toilets are not all on the same level. Bring your mates, your date or your loudest sequins, and support this independent SE1 queer pub.
