MQ Pride Night opens its 2026 series on 12 June at the open-air stage of MuseumsQuartier Wien as part of MQ’s Summer Stage program. Now in its fourth year, the night sets the tone for the summer with a charged mix of performance, music, and club energy.

La Terre takes the stage with Central American influences and operatic force, turning voice and presence into an act of resistance. BUNX – dripping in jelly of the black atlantic is a dance performance by Andrea Vezga Acevedo, Iris Omari Ansong, mirabella paidamwoyo dziruni, and Yours Izundu, moving between club and ceremonial atmospheres while reclaiming twerk as an embodied, political, and diasporic practice.

Drag House of Clits brings high-impact drag to the stage with CHILLIJUICE, Discount Liquor, and Freddie Venus, delivering bold looks, sharp humor, and unapologetic presence. Denice Bourbon joins with her unmistakable blend of cabaret, music, and biting political edge.

The night spills onto the dance floor with a DJ set by মm., whose sets weave together experimental club sounds, diasporic rhythms, and storytelling.

Curated and hosted by Daniel Hill, MQ Pride Night continues to function as a platform for performance, exchange, and visibility. In 2026, the format extends beyond June, with three additional editions in July, August, and September, continuing the series across the summer months.
