Our 2023 season continues! Pride Month is upon us, and we're going all the way out for Queer As Float!

Ben Greiner has crafted a unique journey through some never before Floated highlights of the Lower East side with music provided by some of our favorite DJs, Heath Saunders, Dusty Sanders, and Shannon Cabbell. Four nights of fabulous Floating await, so we want to see your most sickening moves, looks, and energy, whether this is your first Pride or your fiftieth, whether you’re out and proud, or just an enthusiastic ally. It’s time to dance. Queer as Float is led by Ben at early waves, and Shannon at second waves.

Saturday 6/17, 8:00pm

It’s not too late to get a season pass! You’ll lock in the lowest possible price and guarantee a ticket for each of this year’s remaining five all new Floating Dance Parties. This year, we’ll also be offering package deals on large ticket orders: buy ten or more tickets to one event, and you’ll also get each ticket at $30, the lowest possible price. To buy a block of tickets to an announced or future event, you’ll need to fill out our contact form or email us directly at float@whatthefloat.com.

Not sure what you’re getting yourself into? Let us explain a little.

Each night, you’ll be able to take advantage of Floatcheck, our mobile coat and bag check service throughout the night. Expect the event to last about three hours, with no afterparty this time. Check-in starts at 8:00pm (or whatever your official start time) and only runs thirty minutes, so do not delay! If you are late you may be left behind and might not be able to catch up.

The fine print: COVID (still, STILL) isn't over. Please get vaccinated, get boosted, and get tested regularly, for your own sake. All tickets are FULLY REFUNDABLE, no questions asked, with advance notice; if you are in any way concerned about your well-being, we would very much prefer you stayed home. Just let us know so we let someone else in; these events are small and they will sell out. This is an age 21+ only event.
