Attend a queer party in Bandra that will celebrate beauty in the bizarre

Pride Month 2024: Here's why you can attend this queer party in Bandra

A moment from the previous edition of the weekender

The quiet gaze party organised by The Gay Gaze Bombay this weekend will be nothing like your typical party in the city. Imagine the lights dimmed, mellow music playing in the background, a dancing guide, with everyone in their personal space. The party forms a part of the collective’s two-day long pride celebrations set to the theme of Bizarre Bazaar. “Queer individuals often find it hard to abide by heteronormative constructs. Bizarre Bazaar is a celebration of the ones that stand out, the bizarre,” shares founder Winnie Chopra.


The weekender will include a marketplace for queer-owned small businesses, a nukkad-style theatre show, a barbecue cookout and a drag show. “What I like is that there are no competitive undertones to these events,” shares Palash Gogoi, a musician from the collective. The drag event, for instance, will witness experts like Naaz B and Melancholia share their tips with newcomers. Chopra adds, “The core idea is to make all individuals feel comfortable in their skin beyond what is perceived as glamorous. Last year, we built a community of more than 700 members and allies. We hope we grow larger and closer this year.”
