Welcome to Queer Dance Philly, your cheat sheet for finding the next move.
Queer Dance Philly pieces together queer artists, parties, and venues so you don’t have to scour the internet just to get your groove on. It’s intended for discovery: to find a party you didn’t know about, an artist you haven’t heard yet, or maybe meet someone new.
QDP is also the force behind Melt, a sexy, sapphic dance party built around the concepts of groove, glimmer, and grind. See @melt.phl on Instagram for details.

See you out there!
Melt is a warm, sensual, sapphic and trans-forward club night built around groove, glimmer, and grind. Intimate without being slow and sexy without being performative, it’s a space for giving yourself permission to dance close, be bold, and see where the night takes you.
Expect funky house basslines, glitchy electronica, and physical club rhythms in a high-energy night that’s sure to leave you spent.
The night is what you make it.
Bring vinyl, tapes or CDs to swap, or paint an upcycled record with De’von Downes at Val’s. The record swap runs 4–7 PM, with the painting workshop beginning at 5:30 PM and curated records playing throughout. Swap admission is $5, the workshop is $25, and the combo is $27. Swap proceeds support relief work for Marcel/Hazem in Gaza.
