Join us Saturday, June 21 at The Drake Underground for our biggest ShikShook yet — it’s our One-Year Anniversary + Pride celebration, so you know we’re going all out.

 

 

 

 

Get ready for a night full of love, nonstop dancing, and queer Arab/SWANA joy with a stacked lineup you won’t want to miss:

 

 

 

 

Drag performances by Toronto faves Anoush Ellah & Selena Vyle — together on stage for the first time

 

A special dance performance by the fierce Slaylat

 

A live drumming set by Jenny C.

 

DJ Romantek & DJ Ra2asny spinning Arabic top hits, old and new — plus some Assyrian and Armenian bangers in the mix

 

 

 

 

Foam sticks for early arrivals (first come, first serve!)

 

Visuals featuring ShikShook memories & queer Arab/SWANA love on loop – want to be part of the visuals? Submit your favorite photo or video, or share a special message here to be featured on the projector during the party!

 

 

 

 

About ShikShook:

 

ShikShook is a safe and inclusive party series created by the community, for the community. It’s a space where Arab/SWANA queer folks can connect, express themselves, and uplift one another. At ShikShook, we celebrate nostalgic Arabic tunes, freedom of self-expression, and authenticity. We’re also committed to giving back—a portion of each event’s profits supports urgent and essential causes. Proceeds from this event will directly benefit families across the Middle East.
