Big Gay BARn CRAWL
You know what Asheville NC needs more of? Barn Dances!
Hay girl hay! Saddle up, sugar, Asheville’s first annual Big Gay BARn CRAWL is ridin’ into town Friday, November 6th, from 6:00 p.m to 2:00 a.m. for a night of community and good ol’ fashioned hoedown shenanigans. Every color of the rainbow and allies are welcome. Ages 21 and up.
Grab your boots, dust off your denim, and saddle up for a bar crawl featuring drink specials, happy hour, live DJs, dancing, and enough queer joy to leave a politician shakin’ in her boots!
- Kick things off with the She/He Haw Happy Hour at Banks Ave. Bar from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. and learn to 2-step with Jerri;
- Mosey on over to the They/Them Barn Dance at The Underground at O.Henry’s from 9:00 p.m. to midnight for twirlin’ tunes with DJ EZ Boogie; and
- Keep the party goin’ at The After Barn at Shakey’s from midnight to 2:00 a.m. with DJ Kent’s Total Gold hits.
Along the way, meet REAL (not AI slop!) organic corn-fed, free-range drag entertainers including Divine Holeburn, Domina Trix, and Will Pounder (Nova’s out of town Helen Bedd is retired).
With a suggested donation of $5 per event to cover expenses, this is a community-wide gathering you won’t want to miss. DONATE at the events in person, or online at https://www.ashevilledragbrunch.com/donate
So round up your herd, bring your best farm-fresh outfits, make some new friends, and dance with they/them! There ain’t no party like a Big Gay BARn CRAWL!
