ADONIS Birthday 2026

Adonis started in a converted north London workshop in 2017 and now fills The Cause in the Docklands. This edition is its ninth birthday and runs as a day party rather than a night out: doors from the morning, music through the afternoon, everyone out by the evening.

The music is house and techno spread over several rooms, and the crowd is mixed, young and heavily dressed up. It is one of very few queer raves in London built around daylight, which is a large part of why people plan trips around it.

Doors shut partway through the day and there is no admission after that, so turning up late is not an option. The venue is in the Royal Docks in east London, a short walk from the DLR, and the party is over 18s.
