2:00–10:00pm Saturday / 2:00–9:00pm Sunday

Free / All Ages

The 2025 Public Disco Block Parties Presented by 2 Hoots Hard Iced Tea kick off with a two-day open-air celebration on Granville Island. After a packed debut in 2024, we’re expanding to a full weekend of free programming with two distinct musical journeys.

Saturday’s session, curated by G-Luve, explores the lineage of disco - from its soulful beginnings to its evolution into house, garage and beyond. On Sunday, Brendocha of Gateo highlights Latinx talent with her thoughtful curation of DJs, gogo dancers and more. It’s the first of two free Public Disco events this summer, and our only activation on beautiful Granville Island.

✦ LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

At Public Disco Society, we recognize that our events and gatherings primarily take place on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh Nations. We honor and respect the Indigenous peoples who have stewarded these lands for generations and continue to do so today. We acknowledge that the land on which we operate, celebrate, and build community is stolen land. Our events and parties are held in public spaces that have been home to Indigenous Nations long before the arrival of settlers. As team members, it is our responsibility to tread softly on the land and respect it, always leaving the spaces we occupy better than how we found them. We encourage all members of our community to take this acknowledgment to heart, reflect on its significance, and actively engage in respectful and meaningful actions that support Indigenous sovereignty and rights.
