Event intelligence
Know before you go
Entry wait
The event runs 19:00–04:00 and is free before 23:00. Arrive early if you want the performances and a lower-pressure entry; check the venue's current table-booking information if you want a base for the night.
Best arrival time
Be there for the early evening show segment rather than arriving only after midnight, when the event has shifted into its DJ-led club format.
Attendee mix
Glasgow queer nightlife regulars, Wicked fans, drag audiences, friends and allies looking for a theatrical Friday that turns into a full late-night pop floor.
Dress code in practice
No required dress code is published. Emerald, pink, theatrical or everyday partywear all fit the theme; choose footwear that works for a long club night.
Host and security inclusion
Polo Lounge describes itself as an LGBTQ+ inclusive safe space. The night foregrounds queer drag performance and welcomes guests who want to celebrate the film and its camp, community-facing cultural appeal.
