Heated Rivalry Dance


  • 132 Mayor Avenue St. John's, NL Canada (map)

We're turning up the heat with a night inspired by the raw, restless, can’t-look-away energy of Heated Rivalry. This will be a video-fueled dance floor built on tension and chemistry — queer anthems, pop bangers, disco gems, and high-energy club tracks that will thrive at the ice house.

Strike a POSE. Score a PRIZE. Bust a MOVE!

Show up dressed as your favorite queer sports icon — past or present — and strike a pose on the dance floor. Bring the swagger, serve the look, and you might just score a prize. Whether it’s fierce, campy, or legendary, we want to see it!
