Included Perks
No dress code- just show up as your most expressive self in something shiny, glowing, or dance-ready!
Some questions about what to wear: In short, there is NO dress code! This is an arts & music event at heart so this is about community and expression! The theme is Glitter & Glow..... for perspective I myself will be wearing black jeans, a shiny glitter jacket over black T shirt. Wear something shiny, something glow or neon, or just something you're comfortable to dance & explore the nights offerings in! We will have Lunarfits offering glow body paint for guests as well, so leave some skin!
