WAX PALACE 2023:
join a community united in dance

What goes into a Wax Palace event?

crowd

Crowd matters, and we've been blessed with the best. It's the energy you guys bring to every event that shapes Wax Palace - so thank you!

We've also been trained by Good Night Out Campaign to create dance floors which represent a safe environment for all, and we operate a zero-tolerance policy toward any form of violence, harassment or discrimination.

music

Wax Palace aims to curate lineups which celebrate emerging underground talent alongside some of the industry’s bigger names.

We've danced with the likes of Noudle, Riz La Teef, Luxe, Dr Banana (check out his clothing line), Papa Nugs, Kirk, Lily Huu, Lila, JD X (of Eastern Margins), Phasmid, ohmydais, DJ Love, Sophia Violet (of Girls Don't Sync), Kisa, EN:YO and many more.

design

Lovingly Handmade Raves. There is a DIY attitude in everything we do - it's what makes Wax Palace fun, and it's what grants us a creative freedom. We hide dance floors behind fridges, hold raves in mazes, and have proudly hand-built every part of every event.

Below you can read about some of our past events, raves, parties, festivals and fundraisers. Enjoy!

The Kaleidoscope

The birthplace of Wax Palace as you know it. An invite-only rave in a maze. A world of sound and colour, filled with hidden dance floors, interactive artwork and mind-bending architecture. We've constructed The Kaleidoscope three times, each with its own design theme, maze layout and lineup.

Boiler Room

In collaboration with Boiler Room, Wax Palace presents an audio-visual experience at SWX Bristol, soundtracked by Lily Huu, Phasmid, JD X, Phia 500, Zade and Kirk.

Club Residency

Wax Palace takes on a residency at The Old Red Bus Station, throwing a monthly party featuring the likes of Kep Tek, Felix CW, Lila, Sol, Outhouse Sounds and Buckley. Let's show the floor tiles of Old Red what it’s all about!

WP Presents...

A programme of events which foreground the acts involved and their approach to dance music. "With a background in UK Pirate Radio and a staple Rinse FM residency, Oneman’s blend of Garage, House, UK Funky and Grime is sure to create a hot and heavy night in the Wire basement."

Trip Down The Garden Path

A private party organised by Wax Palace, inspired by psychedelic art and set in a quaint cottage garden. STRICT 'funky trousers' theme, a dance floor suspended 10 feet from the ground, all in an arena of trippy sculptures, bright lights and loud music.

WP Summer's Day

An all-day dance in support of the People’s Republic of Stokes Croft! We'd like to thank Yemz, Bushbaby, Noudle, DJ Ammi, Phia 500, DJ Major, DJ Sweetcheeks, Foureel, Jack Spencer, DJ Baldy, Kirk, Woodman and Housewares for their support, and Lost Horizon for trusting us with their beautiful venue.

Hell's Kitchen

One room spanning heaven and hell, themed as a melting pot of tarot cards, satanic rituals and god-given light. A private party for saints and sinners alike.
