After an incredible Pride weekend, we're taking a little breather today, Tuesday 9th June 🌈✨

The Flying Handbag will be closed all day, but we'll be back open as normal tomorrow and ready for another week of entertainment.

Thank you to everyone who joined us over Pride weekend and helped make it one to remember ❤️

See you tomorrow!

Happy Monday after Pride, folks! 🌈

We hope you all had an amazing weekend.

Today we're taking things a little easier with Karaoke from 4pm, hosted by DJ Pudsley. There's a starting prize of 100 Pink Pounds up for grabs, with the chance to boost that to 150 Pink Pounds if you're brave enough to Spin The Wheel 🎤🎡

Then tonight, Miss Amber takes over the box until the early hours, with a cabaret spot or two from the fabulous Emma Louise along the way 💋

See you at the bar!

ITS PRIDE SUNDAY, and if you thought it was going to be your recovery day… that’s adorable. 🥹🏳️‍🌈🍾

We’re open from midday and going straight through till 4am, because apparently pacing ourselves is something we still haven’t mastered.
Lily kicks things off at 2pm with vocals that could resurrect the hungover, The Lady & The Camp cause chaos in two instalments, Irene Silva and Rebecca keep the energy high, Bonnie La Blue does what only Bonnie can do, Johnny Wright takes us into the late hours, and Sordid Secret brings the drama at 22:45, before Chloe Byrnes closes out the cabaret at midnight like the powerhouse she is.

And the best part? No door charge. All day. All night.
Translation: you’ve got no excuse — get in, stay in, and let Sunday have its way with you.

See you on the dancefloor.
Or at the bar.
Or somewhere you definitely didn’t plan on being. 🪩
