Nostalgia

Nostalgia is a love letter to queer party nights gone by.

Based in Joburg, this old-school party carries party people through decades of music, memory, and freedom, back to the moments when dance floors became sanctuaries and songs felt like lifelines. It celebrates the sounds that shaped queer culture, from timeless anthems to forgotten favourites, each track steeped in emotion and lived experience.

Every beat echoes with history, every chorus sparks recognition, and every shared glance on the floor reminds us why these nights mattered and still do. Nostalgia is a space created for grown-ups to come home to the music that raised them, to honour where they’ve been, and to dance fully into who they’ve become. Rooted in community, pride and collective joy, it’s not just a party, it’s a reunion, a release and a reminder that queer joy is our birthright!

What to expect:

An easygoing, sun-kissed Sunday energy that invites you to relax, move, and reconnect. DJs carefully select old-school gems and iconic tracks, guiding you through the sounds that defined generations. Explore local vendor stalls spotlighting queer- and femme-owned brands, all while sharing the space with a grown, gorgeous crowd that comes for the music, the connection, and the feel-good atmosphere.
