Step into the in-between this New Year’s Eve. Across 2 levels and 5+ stages, explore a night of music, art, and unexpected moments.
This is a festival, co-curated by Morning Choir, Spark Entertainment, Paperhand Puppets, Camp Strung Cheese, and more of your (and our!) favorite producers.
HERE’S WHAT'S IN THE QUEUE:
Stage 1: Rave Room, presented by Morning Choir. NYC’s Baltra takes the stage with his genre-defying music, from lo-fi house to breakbeat. Known for viral hits like “Fade Away,” Baltra leads a lineup featuring Big Feels, Seance Music, thefacesblur, and Marley Carroll—all guaranteed to keep you moving.
Stage 2: As seen in Rhythm and Flow, curated by Sparx ENT, showcases rising stars from Netflix’s #8 show in the country. Experience the raw talent of Jaxs, the commanding energy of Rhome, and the charisma of Chyng Diamond, supported by host Ava, DJs BossLady and Halo, and featured appearances from Big Cindy and Kiiba.
At Stage 3: Drag + DJs, we’ve partnered with Durham’s legendary queer nightclub for an underground dance experience. Feel the pulse of the night with sounds from DJ VSPRTN, Zac Lor, Ian Stewart, Queen Plz, and an extended set by Ver. Then buckle in for drag performances from Naomi Dix and Stormie Daie that will showcase the c*nty energy Club Era is known for.
And that’s not all—We’ll have pop-up performances on mini-stages throughout the venue.
The Kink Zone, curated by the creator of Kinky Board Games will highlight NSFW performance art and demonstrations for those who want to keep it sexy.
Meanwhile, the Strung Cheese Stage, led by your friendly neighborhood Burn Camp, brings an immersive mix of performers, community, and art.
From 8:30 PM to midnight, it’s a music-festival fever dream. Then the entire venue transforms into a two-floor dance party to welcome 2025.
