OUT-FIT

Loafers Cocktail Bar presents DJ Don't Judge, a queer feminist artist and safer space creator from Moscow. Her sets are interactive performances that expand boundaries of DJing and encourage self-expression. During them, Liza suggests improvisational games, produces charismatic dance moments and raises awareness about social issues. She starts each show with special intros that range from funky greetings to speaking up about politics, safety in night spaces, experiences faced by people from marginalised communities and other topics. DJ Don't Judge likes a sensual and booty-shaking, yet ironic sound — mixing bass, electropop, latin and afro club with memes, sexy remixes and other pop-cultural references (from fairytales to iconic quotes). Currently a resident of prominent Moscow clubs, she’s performed all over the world (USA, UK, Portugal, Turkey, Georgia, Kazakhstan). An educator and event producer in the past, Liza used to organise edutainment parties in support of women, queer people and people of colour. Today, her shows are one of a kind experiences that foster connection — between people and our inner parts. Join us Friday for some beautiful vibes.

LOAFERS Cocktail Bar Event

Loafers Cocktail Bar is highly praised for its great cocktails and welcoming atmosphere, making it a popular spot for patrons. Reviewers appreciate the cozy decor, attentive bartenders, and a good mix of music that allows for conversation. The bar is noted for its affordability and vibrant crowd, particularly appealing to the LGBTQ+ community.

New York City is the birthplace of the modern LGBTQ+ rights movement, with the Stonewall Inn in Greenwich Village being the site of the historic 1969 Stonewall riots. The city has multiple gay neighborhoods including Chelsea, Hell's Kitchen, and the West Village. NYC Pride is one of the world's largest Pride celebrations, and the city offers an unparalleled array of queer bars, clubs, cultural institutions, and community organizations. From historic venues to cutting-edge nightlife, NYC remains a global LGBTQ+ cultural capital.
