Heated Rivalry is back. 🔥🧊
Our last Heated Rivalry party sold out, and it reminded us how powerful it can be when people come together to dance, connect, and show up for each other. So we’re bringing it back March 28 at Ottobar at 10 PM.
This time, the night is also a benefit for families affected by ICE. The theme may play with the idea of heat melting ice, but the intention behind it is real. This is about community, solidarity, and turning a packed dance floor into something meaningful.
DJ Amsies will be performing music from the show. Come find vendors, community resources, and opportunities to make a difference.
Come dance, bring your friends, meet new people, and be part of a community that believes showing up for each other matters!
📍 Ottobar
🗓 March 28
⏰ 10 PM
Tickets are available through the link in bio (price listed includes taxes). If you would like to skip the online fees, you can also buy tickets in person at Ottobar during open hours in the weeks leading up to the show by speaking with the bartender.
Let’s bring the heat.
