Queer C*ntry
Saddle up: Queer C*ntry is in town! Find yourself in cowboyland with Pink Suits, The Northdown Rodeo and a host of incredible cabaret and live music performances.
Join us to celebrate the breadth of Khan’s musical influence with a day-long rodeo hosted by Margate’s Dame Jame. Get in line to dance along to country-style performances, and strap in for c*ntry’s best cabaret from Nat Funni, Symoné, Prinx Silver and The Cybils.
Both Sunday Girl and Reverse Cowgirls spin the decks to keep your boots stomping all day long.
First time at the rodeo? Come dressed to impress in your c*ntry best, snap a picture at our photobooth, put your best foot forward at our line dancing workshop and join in with Dame Jame’s games for a chance to win some c*ntry-lovin’ prizes.
