A special LAYLIT X PIQUE takeover of GRIDWRKS opening Pique’s 5-year anniversary weekend celebrations!

Collaborators since 2022, Debaser first partnered with Laylit when the collective curated programming at Pique. Four years later, Laylit has become a cornerstone of Ottawa nightlife, regularly hosting sold-out events each season. Together, Laylit and Debaser have cultivated a vibrant safer space where Arab/SWANA and 2SLGBTQIA+ communities can gather, celebrate, and connect through joy on the dancefloor.

On Friday, June 12, we kick off our birthday celebrations with one of our most impactful partnerships by offering PWYC tickets to Laylit for the first time since 2022. Sliding scale and subsidized tickets are available online while supplies last (and they will sell out!) so get your tickets now!

Laylit is a platform and collective celebrating music and artists from the Arab/SWANA region and its diaspora. Over the last four years their dance parties in New York City and Montreal have carved out an unmatched place in North American nightlife, becoming an anticipated social gathering and unique musical experience.

Experience Pique from June 12-13, with performances, panels, installations, film screenings, and more!

Subsidized (choose-your-own-price) tickets are available for registration while supplies last.
