Come say farewell to one of the most iconic & beloved queer community spaces in Vancouver

It’s true, after so many moments when we thought it was our very last season at 550 Malkin, an end of the era has finally arrived. February will be the last month of parties hosted at The Warehouse at Eastside Studios!

The Warehouse at Eastside Studios has had an amazing FIVE YEARS at this location! We're incredibly grateful to all the community members and allies who have helped support this little DIY space turned community hub. GOODBYE, FAREWELL is our chance to come together, toast to all the great times we've had, and collectively manifest a future full of opportunity for even more exciting alternative queer spaces!
