Scotland's longest running, and some would say, most beloved queer clubbing institution HOT MESS returns with its supersized BIG HOT MESS party this October for a Halloween special at The Biscuit Factory, with special guest Cormac joining your favourite resident DJ dad, Simon Hot Mess. A regular at Berghain / Panorama Bar, Cormac commands dancefloors with emotional and ecstatic energy. His take on Hi-NRG, Italo disco, house, techno, and nu-wave displays deep historical awareness, bridging eras of queer club music & culture while pushing its future forward. Cormac's Polari Records label is dedicated to elevating LGBTQ+ artistry and championing queer creativity, and his Queerly Beloved podcast explores how music shapes the lives of LGBTQIA+ artists and allies, featuring guests such as Beth Ditto, Peaches, Hercules & Love Affair, and Romy. __ The Biscuit Factory is easily accessible by public transport. Bus: The closest bus stop is Anderson Place on Bonnington Road, just a 1-minute walk (35 metres) from the door. Tram: The nearest stop is Balfour Street, which is about a 10 to 14-minute walk away.
