Save the date for a special Memorial Day Weekend voyage with Goth Barge, Venus Social Club, and Cactus Club on Sunday, May 24th, 2026! We invite you to the Queer Gothic Boat, a three-hour gothic dance party on the lake aboard the VISTA KING Milwaukee’s largest tour vessel. Join us for an inclusive celebration of the darker side of culture as we set sail for an evening of community and music.
It’s going to be a night to remember, filled with the most choice beats curated by Dance Commandr, xdominionx, and special guest DJ Mya. Prepare to be enchanted by their bewitching mixes of Goth, Industrial, and Darkwave as we cruise the Milwaukee waters.

The Venus Social Clubs, R3ALGRRL, and guest DJ xxUltravioletxx will be spinning an electrifying mix of tunes to keep the energy going. The music kicks off at 9:00pm, and the party runs until 1:00am.
