Attendees enjoyed an authentic, underground vogue ball experience, complete with all notable voguing Houses, legendary vogue DJ MikeQ, a stacked lineup of judges, & cocktails by Bacardí.

Houses competed in their most iconic wardrobe to the categories of Performance, Runway, Face, Realness, Hand Performance, and Sex Siren. Falling on the same day as Juneteenth, and in line with Pride month, the Ball was a celebration of freedom and pride to shine light on and honor both.

Decor

The Garden at Soho Warehouse DTLA was transformed into a full fashion show, red carpet experience.

Fully equipped with a professionally-lit red carpet for contestants to strut their stuff, a judges table fit for a queen, and red, yellow & green florals aligning with Juneteenth.

Contestants, judges & guests, got to take the florals home so that everyone quite literally got their flowers tonight.
