In celebration of Halloween, Section 8 and House of Diesel are teaming up again for Hella Queen: The Horror House of Diesel. The annual ballroom and club night will have punters screaming, gagging and shaking in their pumps with DJ sets from local ballroom artists, lip sync battles, voguing, live performance competitions, best dressed prizes, cinematic visuals, pumpkin donuts, spooky decor and heaps more.
This year marks the fifth annual instalment of Hella Queen – a celebration of the LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC ballroom scene in Naarm. This event is proudly supported by the folks at Teremana Tequila and Hop Nation.
