WHAT IS BALLROOM?
The underground ballroom scene has it roots as far back as to the 1920 in Harlem, New York, and was created by the Black and Latin Trans women and Drags, as a new safe space due to racism they faced within the white pageant scene. It evolved into many new categories and became not only a space for trans women of colour to enjoy the safeties of community but of all queer people of colour to create and express what was not allowed at the time to express in the public. While the community is not as segregated as it used to be, we remind you that the space was created and are ruled by people of colour, and we remind you that the underground ballroom scene will not accept any types of racism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, body shaming or any types of discrimination. Ballroom welcomes everyone and respects everyone, regardless of race, gender, ethnicity, body, sex or status. Ballroom is a place of love, unity, creativity and mutual respect. If you are not a person of colour and/or person of queer experience, we would like to reinstate that you are a guest within the ballroom community and should follow rules as everyone else. Please be mindful of the space you take as a guest, and you will be welcomed with open arms.

Husker du den bizarre og macabre film the Addams Family? De vender nu tilbage i Ballroom format!
Solange og Cupid Owens inviterer dig til at fejre monstrene, de magiske væsener og outcasts, der har luret i skyggerne i årtusinder, gemt sig i de hellige grave, i mørke skove eller under din seng. I aften løslader vi dem for at erobre catwalken, så overgiv dig til de primitive instinkter, og begynd at rocke dine guldtænder, for det er det, en monsterf**ker gør!
HVAD ER BALLROOM?
Den underjordiske ballroom-scene har sine rødder helt tilbage til 1920'erne i Harlem, New York, og blev skabt af sorte og latinamerikanske transkvinder og dragqueens som et nyt sikkert rum på grund af den racisme, de stod over for inden for den hvide skønhedskonkurrence-scene. Den udviklede sig til mange nye kategorier og blev ikke kun et sikkert rum for transkvinder af farve, men for alle queer personer af farve for at skabe og udtrykke, hvad der på det tidspunkt ikke var tilladt at udtrykke offentligt. Mens fællesskabet ikke er så adskilt som det plejede at være, vil vi gerne minde dig om, at rummet blev skabt af personer af farve, og vi minder dig om, at den underjordiske ballroom-scene ikke vil acceptere nogen former for racisme, homofobi, transfobi, ableisme, kropsskam eller nogen former for diskrimination. Vores Ballroom byder alle velkommen og respekterer alle, uanset race, køn, etnicitet, krop, køn eller status. Ballroom er et sted for kærlighed, enhed, kreativitet og gensidig respekt. Hvis du ikke er en person af farve og/eller queer, så vil vi gerne understrege, at du er en gæst inden for ballroom-fællesskabet og bør følge reglerne som alle andre. Vær opmærksom på det rum, du indtager som gæst, og du vil blive budt velkommen med åbne arme.
