BIXARIA

BIXARIA is an Amsterdam-based Queer Brazilian Club Night focused on creating space for shaking all the r4bas! In Brazilian slang, “shaking the raba” means dancing with your butt up and down as much as you want, in whatever way you like and as far as your imagination can take you! It is about fun, joy, sensuality and collective creativity, exactly the way we love it in the streets of Brazil. Expect contemporary Brazilian Funk, Brega Funk, Techno Brega, Brazilian House, Dembow and experiments crossing all of that. DJs, performances, MCs and, most importantly, you. We are not a rave party, we are a performatic experience. Each edition has a theme, so feel free to dress up and help embody it with us. LINE-UP DJ: Lino Calixto / RaQL / DJ Pyraña / DJ Brenda / MC Mavi Performance: Mr. Bixa Gringa Pageant / Orô & Guests / Sly Fox Bixaria: Mother Lucía / La Cigra$$ninha / Nad / Forest / Gender Awareness Team Stage Dancers: Anne de Andrade / Di Oliveira / Rafael Quicas / Volunteers What to expect? At BIXARIA, we don’t assume anyone’s gender, and we’re not concerned with how people look. This is a space for experimentation — on your own terms, in whatever way you need. We have a door policy and a Gender Awareness Team led by Mother Lucía: a gender coach and floor manager who’s always present to support, guide, and look after the well-being of our community throughout the night. Our space centres immigrant, BIPOC and experimental communities — the ones we are part of ourselves. But everyone who comes to support the vibe is welcome. BIXARIA is organised by La Cigra$$ninha, an artist with community-driven projects across multiple countries.
