Halloween at Halfway
If you need proof that Halloween is gay Christmas, just wait till you peek through Halfway II Heaven’s window and see it all decked out in spooky decor – they love a fright night at the Charing Cross venue. There’s going to be scary drag and frightening cabaret all over the Halloween week, with all their fantastic residents, but you might want to mark in blood, Monday 28 October when it’s Halloween Lip-Sync War with The Vixens and the day itself, Thursday 31st, when the screening of Drag Race UK is followed by Kevin Walsh and his Scaryoke.

Bingo and quizzing mid-week at the Duke of Wellington
We love the fun weekends at The Duke Of Wellington, with amazing DJs such as David Robson, Holestar and Heidi Liscious, but they also serve up fun mid-week. Every Tuesday, Aussie shopping superstar Sheila Simmonds hosts her Busy Lady Bingo with ‘gorgeous prizes galore’… it says here. Plus every Wednesday it’s their Didn’t They Do Welly pub quiz, hosted by Martha D’Arthur or Topsie Redfern on rotation.
Cabaret at the Old Ship

RuPaul’s Drag Race UK at Rupert Street
Drag Race UK fever has gripped the nation, and what can be more fun than watching it in a gorgeously swish Soho bar with a cold drink in one hand surrounded by more screaming fans. The team at Rupert Street have joined in the excitement and you can now see it every Thursday at 8pm at their weekly viewing party. Plus don’t forget they have Happy Hour with great deals and hot DJs including Tasty Tim at the weekend.
