AVANT Scenkonst takes over Inkonst with an incredible lineup. Internationally acclaimed Drag Syndrome will headline the night with an iconic drag show you won’t forget.
Doors 18:00 ● ENG ● 18+
But are we stopping there? Absolutely not!
We’re also proud to present the multi-talented artists from Sweden’s boldest day center, KULTURLABBET, who will treat us to an exclusive fashion film and performance
showcasing their textile artistry. And to truly maximize the evening, we’ve invited Malmö’s very own, award-winning, and all-around amazing Club Mermaid to host the night. Expect a pre-party, drag karaoke, DJs, and pop-up performances throughout the evening.
So throw on your creation of choice, boots, wigs, and loads of makeup, and join us at Inkonst for a night that celebrates difference, challenges norms, and redefines what drag can be!
