On Saturday night, TheBarrowlands Ballroomwill be transformed into ‘A Night at Studio 54’- once New Yorks most famous nightclub – known for its celebrity clientele and for being the first place where trans people we were welcomed in the 70’s.

From fire performers and go-go dancers to stilt walkers, the venue will be turned into disco heaven for one night only. DJ The Reflex will headline and has been hailed as a magician on the decks by Nile Rogers and Disclosure, and the evening will be hosted by drag queen Kiko and supported by Glasgows best entertainer, Edward Reid.
