Queer Bar Takeover - The Ship

We’re setting sail for one last Queer Bar Takeover of the year, and this one is going to be a holiday-season blowout! From 9 PM to midnight, dance to the electric beats of DJ cQuence inside one of KC’s most iconic venues — The Ship — known for its vintage vibes, killer cocktails, and cozy, high-energy atmosphere.

When midnight strikes, we’re heading straight to Q Kansas City for the afterparty, and your ticket gets you free entry so you can dance the night away until 3 AM.

🎟 Your Ticket Includes:
• Entry to The Ship (9 PM – Midnight)
• Free afterparty entry at Q Kansas City (Midnight – 3 AM)

🚗 Parking & Arrival Tips:
• Street parking is available around The Ship in the West Bottoms — arrive early for the best spots
• Public lots are nearby (look for event parking signs)
• Ride-share or carpool highly encouraged for convenience and safety

✨ Close out 2025 with the queer party you deserve — amazing music, strong drinks, and the best people in KC.
