The Second Annual Pride Eve White Party is where the community gathers before the city bursts into color. For one night, the dress code is all white—clean, bold, and unforgettable. Step into a glowing sea of striking looks, high energy, and music that keeps the dance floor moving all night long. It’s a moment to show up, stand out, and celebrate together before Pride season paints Kansas City in every color of the rainbow.

The Look
White is the moment. Show up in your boldest, cleanest, most unforgettable white look. Linen, sequins, suits, crop tops, flowing dresses, leather, vintage, futuristic—whatever version of white makes you feel powerful and seen. When the whole room shows up in white, the effect is electric. Be part of the spectacle.
What to Expect
• A high-energy queer dance party at one of Kansas City’s most iconic venues
• DJs and dancing in the historic East Bottoms
• A welcoming crowd ready to connect and celebrate
• The electric feeling that happens when queer community shows up together
Parking
Plenty of nearby lot parking and street parking is available throughout the East Bottoms.
Carpooling encouraged (and often more fun).

The Mission
Queer Bar Takeover is about reclaiming space. Each month we gather in a different venue across Kansas City, creating a welcoming environment where queer people and allies can celebrate community, connection, and joy.
