ADAM: The Queer Men’s Night Reimagined

ADAM is back for another unforgettable evening in Melbourne — a space built for queer men, masculine-identifying adults, and anyone who wants to hang in a body-positive, drama-free zone. Since 2015, ADAM has been the place where connection, comfort, and community come first — no pressure, no pretence, just good vibes and great company.

For this edition, guys aged 18–25 enjoy free entry with valid ID — no fuss, no cover, just show up and let loose. Everyone else? Grab your ticket and join the fun. The dress code? Think bare-chested, bare-legged, shoes on — yes, we mean it. This isn’t just a party; it’s a celebration of freedom, identity, and joy.

The night’s soundtrack is curated by the unforgettable Mr Leonard of Hollywood — an artist known for turning dancefloors into euphoric sanctuaries. His sets blend sultry vocals, deep house, and playful beats that keep the energy high and the crowd moving all night long.

Happening at Sircuit Bar in Fitzroy, this night is designed for people who want to be seen, not judged. Whether you’re a first-timer or a longtime regular, you’re welcome here — no cliques, no spectators, just real connection with real people.

What to Expect

• Smooth tunes from Mr Leonard of Hollywood
• Happy Hour: 9:30pm–11:30pm (don’t miss it)
• Last admission at 11:00pm — plan your arrival accordingly
• Enclosed shoes required — yes, really
• Mobile phones must be cloaked (so bring cash or plan your drinks ahead)
• Full cloak included — $5 re-cloak fee if you need to access your gear before leaving

ADAM is more than a night out — it’s a manifesto for safety, consent, and respect. Everyone is expected to check in with themselves and others, to respect boundaries, and to support each other if someone feels unsafe. Our staff and CCTV are here to help keep things joyful and secure — but your participation makes the magic happen.

We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of this land — the Bunurong Boon Wurrung and Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung peoples — and pay respect to their Elders past, present and emerging.

ADAM: Eleven years and counting — still holding space for those who want to come as they are.
