Goth Barge is taking to the water across the border for our Toronto maiden voyage, a four-hour darkwave dance cruise on the Jubilee Queen featuring Mistress McCutchan and the Goth Barge DJ crew.

If you’ve been waiting for us to make our international debut, now is your chance to catch the dark energy live on Lake Ontario. Toronto’s Mistress McCutchan will join Goth Barge’s XDominionX and Dance Commandr for a night of darkwave, industrial, and postpunk rhythms.

The Jubilee Queen offers the perfect setting for an evening cruise, featuring a dual-deck layout that splits into a spacious enclosed lower lounge with a massive dance floor and an open upper deck offering panoramic views of the Toronto skyline. The ship comes equipped with a fully stocked cash bar serving up a selection of beer, wine, and liquor to keep you moving all night long. Between sets, you can step out onto the deck to take in the waterfront views. Put on your best dancing boots, bring your energy, and let's show Toronto how we set the vibe on the water.

Make sure to arrive early so you don't get left behind. Gates open and boarding begins at 7:00 PM sharp, with the boat leaving the dock at 8:00 PM. The cruise returns to land at 12:00 AM, and final disembarkation runs until 12:30 AM.

The turnout for the Goth Barge Blood Rave was absolutely unreal, and we want to express our deepest appreciation to everyone who came out and brought so much intense energy to the dance floor.

We owe a massive debt of gratitude to The Miramar Theatre and their entire staff, who handled a wild, fully drenched venue with incredible professionalism. From security and bartending to the sound and light crew, they took care of us completely and proved why they are absolutely first-class.

A shout-out also goes to the awesome talent capturing the night behind the lens for catching all the chaos perfectly, special shout out to videotographer rodisrodmke for the videos in this post. And to our amazing Goth Barge crew for grinding behind the scenes to make it all run smoothly.

Huge props to DJ FernGully, Dominion, and the Dance Commandr himself for delivering the perfect, heavy-hitting mixture of darkwave and acid house that kept the floor moving all night.

We are already back in the lab plotting the next mutation and preparing to bring this back to the city as an ever-evolving experience. For the next round, we are raising the stakes with significantly more blood and a brand-new custom blood mix perfected for maximum visual chaos.

Thank you all so much for trusting the vision, showing up, and making the night what it was. We will see you in the next downpour.

THE BLOOD WILL FLOW. ARE YOU READY? 🩸

This Saturday, June 13th, Goth Barge transforms the Miramar Theatre into a full-scale Blood Rave. The pumps are primed, the rigs are set, and the main dance floor is about to become an absolute bloodbath.

This is high-intensity immersive production. To keep you safe and the venue covered, we are doing things by the book. Here is your essential Pre-Event Checklist so you can survive the night:

WAIVER REQUIRED FOR ENTRY
Entry to the building requires a signed liability waiver. Do not wait until you’re in line! Scan the QR code in our slides, fill it out with your full legal name, and keep that "Waiver Recorded" confirmation screen open on your phone. Your ID name must match your submission exactly.

👉 HIT THE LINK IN OUR BIO TO PRE-SIGN RIGHT NOW AND BYPASS THE LINES.

BLOOD EFFECTS ACTIVE
The heavy theatrical blood drop will be active over the main dance floor. The fluid is non-toxic and washable, but it WILL stain clothing and shoes. Wear gear you do not mind ruining. If you’re dressing to impress, stay outside the Splash Zone.

COAT CHECK AVAILABLE
Protect your valuables, dry clothes, and jackets. We highly recommend utilizing the dedicated coat check inside the venue before heading to the floor.

THEMED DRINKS (LIMITED)
Fuel the night with Syringe Jello Shots and Blood Bags, available at the bar while supplies last. Get to the bar early before they run out!

The music is dark, the atmosphere is relentless, and the bloodbath is guaranteed. Secure your belongings, sign your waiver in advance, and prepare for a legendary night.

Tired of the $130 event passes, the flash downpours, the mile-long lines for lukewarm water, and corporate festival overcrowding? Skip the sunburn and get under the neon lights, because we have your cure. BUMMERFEST, a two-night independent, alternative anti-festival taking over Mad Planet for a massive double-header video dance party weekend. No never-ending lines, no $45 rain ponchos, just pure dancefloor energy.

Night 1 (Friday, June 26th), Goth Barge presents Dead Stars
Dance Commandr, XDOMINIONX, and DJ Falken team up to bring you a heavy dose of futurepop, industrial, EBM, darkwave, and goth. They'll be spinning tracks featuring music videos by VNV Nation, Covenant, Assemblage 23, Seabound, Wolfsheim, Beborn Beton, Icon of Coil, Apoptygma Berzerk, KMFDM, Rotersand, Nine Inch Nails, Front Line Assembly, and more.

Night 2 (Saturday, June 27th), the energy shifts to Post Modern Sleaze
Dance Commandr and DJ FernGully bring you a night of indie sleaze, electroclash, blog house, and dance-punk, dropping the ultimate nostalgic soundtrack featuring LCD Soundsystem, Justice, The Rapture, Klaxons, Digitalism, Simian Mobile Disco, Mstrkrft, Boys Noize, Cut Copy, MGMT, Daft Punk, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Bloc Party, Hot Chip, CSS, and Ladytron.

Both nights kick off at 9:00 PM and run until 2:30 AM at Mad Planet. Entry is just a $7 cover at the door each night, and these are 21+ events. Ditch the mega-fests, support local nightlife, and heal your festival fatigue on the dancefloor.
