Studio 54

In a world that can feel heavy, Studio 54 is your essential escape—a space of pure, high-energy freedom and good vibes centered entirely around community, movement, and the irresistible pulse of Disco.

This is the night to shed the outside world, come exactly as you are, and get lost in the music with incredible people.

While the dance floor is the focus, the spirit of Studio 54 lives on and therefore, we maintain that this is a play-positive space where sexy connections can happen throughout the venue. The dance floor, the cottage, the dungeon, and maybe even the lounge, will all have the potential to be extra hot and sexy. How hot? That's up to you 😉

The Legacy of Disco

Disco was much more than simply a fun style of music; it was a unique and vibrant collaboration between Queer, Black, and Latino cultures. In the 1970s, facing rampant discrimination where public gatherings for Gay men were illegal, Disco musicians and dancers found crucial avenues for self-expression in underground events. This music was a powerful fuel for freedom. It steadily gained popularity and moved up to public discotheques. The original Studio 54 then became a global phenomenon—indisputably the best nightclub in history. With its pervasive sexiness and play-positive attitude, Studio 54 set the stage for today's community play party scene.
