THE HIP-HOP KIKI BALL

Ballroom and Hip-Hop culture have inspired generations of people to no longer accept inequalities and injustices centered on race, religion, sexual orientation and gender. They allow individuals to explore their creativity and unite as a whole collective.

We would like to invite you to celebrate both of these cultures in one place at the same time. Maybe by meeting one another we can continue to inspire and learn the differences and similarities within these rich cultures together.

If you’re not a person of color and/or person of queer experience, we would like to reinstate that you are a guest within the ballroom community and should follow rules as everyone else. Please be mindful of the space you take as a guest, and you will be welcomed with open arms.

THE HIP-HOP KIKI BALL is part of the SPKRBOX festival. The SPKRBOX festival takes place 1-17. December in Oslo. See more information at www.spkrbox.no.
THE HIP-HOP KIKI BALL is supported by the Bergesenstiftelsen and is a collaboration between SPKRBOX, Vega Scene and CA.PA.

This Kiki Ball is a safe space for the BIPOC LGBTQ+ community and we want to create a place for the youth and newcomers to get a taste of ballroom with lower expectations, while still keeping it real to ballroom and its culture.

No to sexism, homophobia, transphobia, racism, ageism, ableism, body shaming or any form of discrimination.

If there are any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact the organizers.
