5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Launch...
No doubt you've heard of Code, Mint or Girl Action. If you've been to any of these events you've most likely met Nikki and Rebecca.
They are both well established on the lesbian scene, hosting a wide range of events aimed at the large variety of lesbians, ensuring the scene has something for most, if not all women.
2011 saw them expand further to include the Big Gay Lifestyle Show. No sooner has one event ended, they're onto the next, ensuring there is always something on. Given the lack of physical venues specifically for gay women, this is quite important.
2012, Despite still being early on, is no different. Nikki and Rebecca have been working hard behind the scenes on a new brand, under which not only do they host their pre-existing nights but also run even more such as a Diversity Role Models fundraiser and Sh! 20th birthday. L-Wired also offers to help you source venues and DJs for your own events - do these women ever sleep?!?
Thursday night was the launch of this new brand, called L-Wired at Clinic in Piccadilly Circus. The venue was quite quirky with mannequins hanging from the ceiling and surgical masks hanging from the menus and the staff in medical uniforms, but this was normal for the venue so what did L-Wired offer?
To thank the ladies who showed up to support them, a free drink on arrival and half price cocktails were just the ticket, and the music was bang on beat, creating a wonderful atmosphere. They'd made sure that whilst the toilets were clean, they didn't have an attendant handing you a paper towel in exchange for wanting a pound. There were lots of them too so there was never a queue!!
We're looking forward to the next big L-Wired event which is the Sh! 20th birthday at Cafe de Paris. Hope to see you all there.
Take a look at the new L-Wired website today!
