MAN UP Y2K
We’re dialing up the modem and logging all the way back to a magical time: the early 2000s 💻✨
How low was your rise?
What was your AIM screen name?
How many viruses did LimeWire unleash on your family computer?And what exactly was loaded onto your iPod mini?
The world was ending, the tips were frosted, the lip gloss was poppin’, and the denim was on denim. And honestly? We lived for it. Baby, don’t call it a throwback —> this is a full-on glitter-drenched, Lisa Frank-inspired, bootcut-sportin’, butterfly-clipped fever dream of a drag show 💅
So buckle up, because “you’re a virgin who can’t drive” - and we’re taking you for a rideeeeee in the Y2GAYYYYY edition of MAN UP! 💽🦋👖

This event is being held on the stolen, ancestral territories of the Musqueam, Skxwú7mesh-ulh, and Tsleil-Waututh nations. As we live and organize queer space as settlers on these lands, we have an obligation to continuously work to repair harms perpetrated upon Indigenous communities, presently and historically. The Birdhouse strives to work with and give back to Indigenous communities in all that we do. Partial proceeds from this event will be donated to the Downtown Eastside Women’s Centre.
