LesLove Opening Party Kölner Lesbian Visiblity Weeks 2026

In the organizer's words:

LES LOVE - Official Opening Party
Lesbian Visibility Weeks Cologne

Off the beaten track of Cologne's Flinta* nightlife, the lesbian organizers create a magical night in the alternative garage club in Cologne - Ehrenfeld with top acts and live sounds. Outside there's space to chill out in the FLINTA*BEERGARDEN, inside it's time to get down to business with KINDAKIRI and KÄRY, who will be blasting the finest indie, rock, pop, R'N'B and reggaeton around your ears.

We start outside in the beautiful weather with a two-hour set by tu nana before moving to the first floor inside.

Straight from El Salvador, a country where it's always summer, tu nana conjures up a summery atmosphere so that we can dance and transport ourselves to the Salvadoran coast. A bit of cumbia here, salsa trumpets there and afro house remixes that make you want to eat a coconut under a palm tree - that's all there is tonight! In the mood? Then come and dance with tu nana.

Kindakiri is a DJ, creator and queer voice from Cologne. Between indie rock, pop punk, alternative and euphoric pop club classics, she creates sets that are nostalgic and explosive at the same time. Singing along is expressly encouraged!
KÄRY is a guest at all the hottest queer events throughout Germany, at the main stages and main events of CSDs. She perfectly mixes all hip dancefloor burners across all genres in a good mood style.

Arielle does the warm-up for Queen Mahoro. Arielle is a master of reggaetone, salsa, bachata and merengue sounds. She combines these classic hits with new Flinta* artists. "Let's shake the booty to hot music"

Live we have a true super talent from Bonn: QUEEN MAHORO, BIPOC songwriter who will present you the latest songs.
Queen Mahoro is 'born and raised in 53', as she says herself. As a small child she was fascinated by the rhythmic beating on bibles and tables. At around the age of 5, she sang in a children's choir until she was 10. After that, she tried out various sports and instruments and continued singing on the side. In summer 2019, she started posting regular videos of cover songs on Instagram. Now she wants to be the role model she has always lacked. In her songs, she deals with many different topics such as heartbreak and life

Dj GINAG and POLLY.PHON play the best house, electro and the finest related music on the bunker floor. The two have been established names in the queer community and beyond for years and know how to celebrate their love of electronic music at the DJ booth together with the extatic crowd in the finest possible way

Special, visuals, top DJs, live act, beer garden, 2 floors.

A safe space and the festive opening of the Cologne Lesbian Visibility Weeks 2026 for the entire FLINTA* community of all ages ;-).

Queer allies are very welcome ;-)

2 euros from the entrance fee will go to anyway Köln, which does important grassroots work for young queer people.
