Garden of Eden: Bacchanalia Bliss

Step into the Garden of Eden and a modern day Bacchanalia, an ancient roman festival celebrating women & Bacchus, the God of freedom & bliss

Step into the ancient allure of the Garden of Eden and revel like it’s ancient Rome. You're invited to a modern-day Bacchanalia—a sacred, ancient, secret Roman festival honoring Bacchus, the God of ecstasy, liberation, ritual, music, and pleasure. Traditionally hosted by women and shrouded in secrecy, Bacchanalias were gatherings of ecstatic dance, ritual, live performances, and artistry. In that spirit, this night will be a femme-focused celebration, highlighting women and femme artists, DJs, and performers.

We gather in celebration of the Summer Solstice, Cancer season, and especially to honor the radiant Aruna Paige, our featured aerialist and birthday queen.

✨ Featuring DJ sets by Indigo, Kyu, Eden, and Vortexual

🎨 Live painting, aerial artistry, fire performers & more immersive magic

Dress to express! Come adorned as a Roman god, goddess, garden creature, fairy, animal, or whatever costume calls you. Costumes are encouraged, but not required.

Tucked within Fairmount Park, the exact location will be revealed to ticket holders on the day of the event.

This is more than a celebration—it's a ritual of reciprocity. 100% of proceeds support the performers and the Consent Culture Coalition, a nonprofit devoted to bringing consent culture to nightlife, events, and more.

Consent and respect are strictly enforced. Anyone behaving disrespectfully or inappropriately will be asked to leave.
