Rites XLII: THE BLACK PARTY

The 42nd edition of this ritual dance x performance art experience inspired by Pagan 'Rites of Spring' celebrations.

Don’t Panic!

THE 42nd BLACK PARTY: the mythic 16+ hour pagan 'Rites of Spring' ritual that transports revelers to uncharted realms. Leave the outside world behind and surrender to the transcendent bonds of Eros, where journeys end with lovers meeting.

Blending its signature Strange Live Acts, breathtaking light shows and a soundscape from the underground music scene's brightest stars, this year’s immersive performance art x dance party dares to ask:

What is the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe and everything.
