Club Immaterial host with the most, Blair de Milo, will continue spinning danceable hyperpop tunes in the lead up to LÂLKA’s frenetic set. LÂLKA will joined by J-pop/J-idol girl group A-MUSE Project.

As a neurodivergent artist who suffers from chronic illness(fibromyalgia), LÂLKA is prioritising accessibility for this event with the following measures to be put in place:
The deliberately limited number of tickets available (less than 100) is set in place to foster active participation from the attendees: instead of passively consuming the entertainment, they get to be within close proximity of the performers for an experience that will be more personal than the larger, more commercial raves.
This event is jointly presented by Cult Figure Club, Club Immaterial and QUIVR.
