About the event
That’s right, we’re digging deep into some of the all-time greatest and most enduring queer pairings across all of fandom! And since we’re now looking at every genre of media this year — film, fiction, TV, comics, anime, video games — we’re going buck wild with these relationship possibilities! So bring us your favorite/horniest/most impossible rivals-to-lovers pairings you can think of, and we’ll ship the hell out of them, QFT-style! Submit your ideas today!
Doors open at the Highball @ 7pm
Show starts at 7:30pm
Free for everyone, and everyone is welcome!
And join us afterward for Mochi Mochi, the only cosplay drag show in Austin! Hosted by Louisianna Purchase.
