Joyce joins the lounge lizards
Kinselas will start the Big Gay Weekend in style with its Gaydar Lounge event. From 6pm-10pm on Big Gay Friday, the Taylor Square venue will launch the festivities with a special Joyce Maynge show and a swag of deals on Gaydar.com.au memberships.
Get down there for your free one-week Gaydar upgrades and listen to Gaydar radio all night, and there’s entertainment, including a contortionist and flame bartender.
Gaydar promo guys will also be on hand to provide some eye candy as you sip on cocktails and lounge back.
Coupled with a stack of giveaways and drink specials, it’s the classy way to kickstart your Big Gay Weekend.
OutMedia’s Bill Brock, one of the men behind the Gaydar group of websites in Australia, said he was looking forward to making the event part of a unique evening.
“It is time to try something different and I hope Sydney gets out and supports all the venues to make this a magical night,” he said.
One of Sydney’s iconic venues, Kinselas boasts an intriguing history. The Chapel, with its high and ornate art deco ceilings, is a tribute to the building’s history as a funeral parlour. It was the headquarters of undertaker Charles Kinsela from 1933 until 1982. It was then converted into a restaurant that can boast the names Tony Bilson and Tetsuya Wakuda.
Kinselas now lays claim to being one of the friendliest and most welcoming bars in Darlinghurst.
Come for your after-work drinks on Big Gay Friday, and make it a night to remember with all the Gaydar goodies.
