FRIDAY NIGHT, IN THE “DARKLING” AREA! When we say all are welcome, as always, we mean it – young and old, Goth or otherwise, come out, come out! But be aware that many of us will be dressing in our finest Goth colors of black, slightly darker black, slightly lighter black, and also, black. And we’ll dance the night away!
Entertainment: We’re picking a DJ. Or, really, our DJ will pick us and let us know.
Libations: Indulge in a selection of goth cocktails at our bar, each crafted to match the dark aesthetic of our gathering. From classics like the..the.. are there classic Goth cocktails? For real? What are they? … to our own concoctions inspired by the night, there’s something to suit every dark palate.
Atmosphere: Revel in the terrible lighting we all cherish, casting long shadows and creating an intimate, mysterious ambiance perfect for dancing or just being in dark and slightly uncomfortable spaces together. Our playlist will feature the timeless tracks that define our culture, ensuring your feet can’t help but move to the gothic rhythm, unless that’s not how you Goh, in which case, all good.
Quiet Retreats: For those who prefer the whisper of solitude, we’ve arranged several quiet areas nearby. Here, you can escape the crowd, reflect, or share hushed conversations amidst the quietude.
Smoking: And yes, for those who still hold a candle for the old ways, you can enjoy the rare pleasure of smoking clove cigarettes, should they still exist in this modern world.
Join us for a night where elegance meets darkness, where every attendee is part of the Darkling Element, and where we prove that the spirit of goth thrives not on extravagance, but on the shared passion for the night. Let’s make this an unforgettable evening, proving that our community’s heart beats strongest in the shadows.
