After a night of Decompression the only thing left to do is Com(pression)Town: The Actual Com! It's a space to chill, Return to Earth, connect with friends, continue the rave or finally get started. It's an after-party, it's The Actual Party and a daytime burner event where you'll be well looked after whatever your headspace. 

We've got multiple theme camps, music, DJs, a performance space, c-c-costumes, no-c-c-commerce, coffee, cake, breakfast and tea, a BYO/Donation bar, no shortage of fun shit to do and, of course, Margaritas! 

Hop on The tube after PreComTown Decom to 'ComTown: The Actual Com' at The Queen of Hoxton with The Flamin' Merkin & friends. We'll be Comming all over Town until the sun goes down.

❀️‍πŸ”₯ Much Love to our Friends who are making this happen: All the gorgeous souls at Panravia, Camp Costume Camp, La Coneja Blanca, FUKC, Flim Flam & The Flamin' Merkin & all of you amazing volunteers and participants!!!  ❀️‍πŸ”₯

🎷 DJs / Workshops / Performances 🎭

πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰ Come share your talents with everyone... πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰

Are you looking forward to dancing away to some banging tunes, being involved in a life-changing workshop or maybe just squishing around in beanbags with old friends? In any case, THIS PARTY AIN'T GONNA FUN ITSELF!

Remember that Participation principle? Yup, that's right. We need you for this party to shine! So tune up your instruments, practice your dance routine and glam up those cabaret acts you've been dying to share with us all. Or maybe you're simply ready to dust off your USBs, Vinyls, Tapes, Minidiscs or 8tracks for one final flurry as we dive into colder days!

We are looking for entertainment acts for our party - DJs, live bands, performers, singers, spoken word or any sort of art are all welcome. Please get in touch with us using this really simple form. You will be treated like a superstar! We will try and accommodate as much as we possibly can.

πŸ€™ Lower Income πŸ€™ 

We also appreciate these times are tougher for some and we all need connection and the space to party. If cost is your barrier to attending ComTown, please email us at [email protected] and tell us why you need a lower income ticket. All requests will be reviewed after the first wave ticket sale. The deadline for lower income ticket requests is Tue 27 October @ 20:27.


πŸ’² Tickets and Donations πŸ’² 

Your ticket includes all transaction fees, drinks, food, entertainment, and contributions to the wonderful theme camps involved. This means that once through the door, you will not have to spend a penny as the entire event is no commerce. 

πŸͺœTiers...

Tickets come in a few tiers - Β£25, Β£30 or Β£35 - all get you the same great experience. If you've got a little extra to give, choosing a higher tier or adding a donation helps to cover the costs of all the wonderful treats and makes it possible for others to attend too. Pay what works for you, no questions asked.


πŸ‘Ό Kids πŸ‘Ό 

We are sorry but the venue is strictly 18+. We did try, but it's not possible at all to have under 18s in the venue. Thanks for understanding.
