La Demence: 35th Anniversary: Main Party at Palais 12

35 YEARS AND STILL HOT AND TOP!
“The secret for this so long going on party, is the happy mix of styles and ages”
The first ever LA DEMENCE party took place almost 30 years ago in 1989 ! What began as a weekly gay party on Sundays in small cities around Belgium has now become one of Europe’s biggest and most renowned parties.
The concept really came into its own and became a roar-away success when the parties settled down in the capital, Brussels, in 1992, and from then on took place in a regular monthly slot at Fuse club: the day before a bank holiday or on a Friday. Besides that,each anniversary at Halloween a full party weekend with several parties is organised, including a huge Main Party at Palais 12.
What makes LA DEMENCE stand out from the other gay parties is the happy mix of different styles and ages partying together: leather boys, bears, fashion victims, muscle queens, drags, young and old – in total in excess of 2000 gays having one hell of a party together. This happy mix creates a family feeling which is the secret of this so long going on party!
As Brussels is strategically placed as a city, LA DEMENCE attracts visitors from France, The Netherlands and Germany as well as hot sexy Italian, Swiss, Spanish, British and American boys.
The venue at Fuse club is huge – containing three different rooms which has the advantage of offering an eclectic range of music delivered by eight international DJs progressing from techno to house, with even a smattering of pop in the smaller room.
Great music and a great crowd also makes LA DEMENCE very sensual, so there are a few darker areas well worth exploring for those looking for a more than just a dance.
