A Boom Bike will fill the air with upbeat tunes before the fun heads to Burnley Mechanics at 3pm for a night of live performances by Adam Smikle, The Downtown Band, BB9.5, and more. There will also be information stalls, face painting, workshops and a live DJ set for dancing the night away.

Elektra Fence, AKA Burnley’s Julian Riley, who starred in season three of RuPaul's Drag Race UK, will bring the night to an electrifying conclusion as the final act.

The event has been produced and organised by young producers from Stand Out and supported by Burnley-based youth arts organisation, Blaze.
