GRIT

GRIT is back for its next instalment in August, following two sold-out events in February and May 2026. This is Melbourne's premier underground fetish dance party, offering a unique space to explore fetishes and fantasies in private play areas or on the dancefloor. The event promises an underground Northside trance and techno night with sex on premises. It's a queer Melbourne secret, run by the acclaimed trance DJ Ruby, and is 100% LGBTQIA+ owned and operated. Attendees receive a complimentary house drink with entry before 10:30pm. The lineup features WILSEY, RUBY, and PSEUDO-KU, providing the soundtrack for the night. GRIT also includes a complimentary cloak room, free dog tag and stickers on entry, and discounted entry to Wet on Wellington with a GRIT wristband. The sticker system helps communicate openness: No stickers means not open, 1 sticker means talk first, 2 stickers means open to fun, and 3+ stickers means ready for the dancefloor. Please note that online tickets are sold out, but limited door tickets will be available, so early arrival is recommended.
