Cloaca: One Hole One Whole
Debut of the Cloaca queer rave series with Smoko, Formosa, HUNY XO, and Kiernan Laveaux.
Cloaca debuts as a new queer rave series in Pittsburgh on April 18, 2026 from 10pm to 6am at a destination unknown location, revealed to ticket holders the day before the event. The night brings together a lineup of Pittsburgh DJs delivering psychedelic grooves and spicy dancefloor rhythms in an underground setting.
DJ lineup (in order of play time):
Smoko
Formosa
HUNY XO
Kiernan Laveaux
The event also features Cloacal Kiss, a durational ambient sound installation by Yessi, along with a darkroom space called The Vent for connection and exploration.
A booze‑free bar will provide creative non‑alcoholic beverages and caffeine options. The space includes an elevator for access to the dance floor, though bathroom stalls are not ADA compliant. Lighting will include haze and flashing lights but no rapid strobe.
Tickets are $20 in advance and $30 at the door. A discount link is available for Black ravers by request. The event emphasizes queer community, collective dancefloor energy, and an all‑night underground rave atmosphere.
