PAARDENRAVE
With PAARDENRAVE
Queer rodeo club night with high-energy genre‑fluid DJs and outrageous performers at Melkweg
PAARDENRAVE is a Rotterdam-born multidisciplinary club concept where My Little Pony meets Pride and somebody accidentally opened a bottle of poppers in the stable.
We're a queer, sweaty, unapologetic rodeo packed with high-energy, genre-fluid DJs, outrageous performers and enough horse energy to make your mane curl. Expect cowboys kissing cowboys, glitter-covered horses, strippers in chaps, hay in your underwear, carrots flying through the air and a dancefloor galloping into sunrise.
Whether you're a horse girl, leather daddy, disco pony, rodeo queen or just horse-curious: everyone is welcome in the stable.
From intimate clubs to massive festival fields, PAARDENRAVE has already left its hoofprints at Mysteryland, Blijdorp Festival, Perron and 160K, turning every venue into a temporary pony club.
Come as a cowboy, come as a horse, come as your ex's worst nightmare. Saddle up for the hottest rodeo in town. Yeehaw!
