Yalda: Winter Solstice Ritual and Play Party

Join us for a magical evening as we celebrate the longest night of the year! This cozy gathering invites you to connect with peers and friends in a warm, playful atmosphere, where we honor both desires and boundaries.

Evening Highlights:

  • Interactive Ritual/Performance: Our night begins with a captivating performance featuring rope, and divination. Audience members will have the opportunity to gain clarity on their questions through the ancient Iranian art of poetry divination. Here, rope connets us to our subconscious and intuition, guiding us as we reflect on the past year and welcome the new one.

  • Playful Party Atmosphere: After the performance, the space will transform into a vibrant party zone. Unleash your creativity as you explore, interact, and connect with others. For those seeking a more relaxed experience, an elegant alcohol-free cocktail bar will be available throughout the evening.

  • Divination Station: We’ll also have a dedicated area for poetry divination and Tarot readings for those interested in deeper insights.

This night is designed for anyone yearning for a magical, sensual, and nurturing solstice experience. We encourage you to engage, explore the unexpected, and immerse yourself in the enchanting ambiance of this special evening.

Important: the doors will be open from 7:30pm - 8pm—after that the door will be closed, the doorbell silenced, and the performance will begin. Entrance after this time is not possible. This event will go until late; there is no definite closing time.

  • Embrace our theme, “Elegance of the Elements,” by dressing in a way that reflects the grace of fire, earth, air, or water. Creative preparations are not only welcome but highly encouraged!

  • Hello! I’m Roja (she/her/او), and I’m a trans-femme composer, performer, dominatrix, and shibari artist. I love blending music (and other artforms) and rope art to create unique experiences that explore human emotions—especially around desire, power dynamics, and liberation.

    In my performances, I use rope as a powerful medium for artistic expression. For me, it’s all about breaking free from societal norms and diving into the beauty of intimacy and trust. I invite you to join me on this journey as we celebrate the complexities of identity, (radical) gender expression, and consensual power exchange together.
