Deep in the forest, magic labyrinth breathes. It watches, it waits, it wants you. Soft petals brush against bare skin, vines tease and tangle, and fairies whisper:
“Follow me, just follow me—
drop with ease,
down to your knees.”
We are volunteer led non-profit and we meet new friends & chosen family through volunteering!

DRESS CODE: Become a Creature of the Labyrinth
Fairies, phantoms, mythic beasts, the Labyrinth recognizes those who embrace its magic. Adorn yourself in iridescent wings, woven vines, celestial silks. Let flowers bloom on your skin, or let dark tendrils coil around you. Glow in bioluminescence, shimmer like dew, or wear the night itself.

The Infinity
(Main room)
Get lost in a labyrinth! Or is it a maze? Infinity of stairs, created by Chickpea, where reality twists and unravels—where stairs lead nowhere, mirrors deceive, and the bass pulls you deeper. Lose yourself.
We’ve curated an electrifying lineup that guarantees an unforgettable night:
Stanley Frank Sensation, San Francisco’s maestro of disco, house, and cinematic beats, turning dance floors into dreamscapes.
Jason Godfrey blends funk, soul, and R&B into a seamless groove that keeps bodies moving.
And the powerhouse duo Jeremy & Jimmy, veterans of Fire Island, Frankie Knuckles’ legacy, and the underground scene, delivering deep, soulful house with unstoppable energy. Get ready to lose yourself in the sound.
In the Cuddlecore Cavern (side room) Burning Man culture thrives in warmth, connection, and the gentle pull of shared presence. Sink into pillowy cushions, share laughter with strangers and let time stretch.
PARTY PERKS
Face & body-painting helpers will be on hand to add the final strokes of enchantment. And when you’re ready, our photographers will capture your metamorphosis.
Morning fruit service – a touch of natural sweetness before you return to the mortal realm.
Full coat & clothing check – shed the ordinary, step into the extraordinary.

Stanley Frank Sensation has been producing and playing parties in San Francisco since 2005. In the dusty video library of the Moby Dick Bar, tucked in a small closet behind the dishwashing machine, Stanley began playing his already signature style of disco, house and rare throwbacks; Utilizing the bar's TV screens not only for music videos, but to play hypnotic, exotic underground and foreign films. The vibe was creative, camp, and artsy but always accessibly fun. This lead him to his first official night at the now defunct Transfer Bar on Church and Market. The night was Chilidog! and became a Tuesday night staple. The soundtrack was italo disco, leftfield house and end of the night intoxicated sing-a-longs (think Rod Stewart's 'Young Turks' or ELO's 'Strange Magic'). The screens played everything from Fellini's Satyricon, the hallucinogenically homo-erotic Hercules in the Underworld, to old episodes of The Muppet Show. Stanley has had a party (or four) aflame every year since then, each with a different concept. The Underground SF had the Monday night crazy Viennetta Discotheque, Saturdays at Q Bar, Go Bang! at the Deco Lounge, Baby's On Fire with JaviEnRose, the Babysitter's Club, I Love Cochina Tonga's at the Lookout, and more, including some exciting guest slots like Sunset/STOMPE NYD, opening for Glass Candy, Psychic TV, and Peaches. Currently, he is busy guesting around town and with producing or playing at Daytime Realness and Xismes! at El Rio, Beatpig at the Powerhouse (and now Pillows there, every Monday), the Kiki tuesdays at Beaux, French Press at Underground SF, and The Chroma-Zone at Oasis. Whether you've heard them tens of times before, or for the first time, Stanley's sets are always fresh, dynamic, eclectic and uniquely his sound, definitely influenced by his childhood in the 80s. He is of the opinion, one he thinks he read Larry Levan say once, that all music can be played like a house record. be prepared for some surprises and always some smiles.

Philadelphia native Jimmy DePre began his professional DJ career in 2002 at the age of 15 landing a job with iconic radio personality and DJ, Jerry Blavat. In 2009, he began his 10 year Friday & Saturday residency at Tavern on Camac, which in 2017 was voted “Best Dance Spot” by Philadelphia Magazine. During this time, gig highlights included a residency at Bobby Viteritti’s Classics Never Die, guest spots at Shep Pettibone’s summer poolside Tea Dances in Asbury Park and Tea Dances at The Blue Whale on Fire Island.
Committed to respecting the history and importance of the queer contribution to dance music, one of Jimmy’s biggest honors was being asked to play the weekend-long Fire Island celebration marking the 50 year inception of Tea Dance alongside Robbie Leslie, Max Rodriquez & Randy Bettis. Jimmy visited San Francisco for the first time in 2014 and fell in love. He played his first guest spot at Go BANG! in 2015 and quickly began traveling more and more frequently to the Bay Area. After guesting at various venues during his visits, Jimmy decided to move to Oakland in 2018.
His knowledge, drive and unique style quickly led him to becoming a resident at Go BANG!. He currently spins at Lookout, has a monthly residency alongside Jim Hopkins at The Eagle for the Filth party and does guest spots for various parties, clubs and bars in the Bay Area. Jimmy also remixes and spins on occasion with his partner Jeremy Rosebrook.
Jeremy Rosebrook made his start as a DJ at the age of 22 in Chicago where he quickly became one of the most promising local house music talents. From the beginning, Jeremy championed a distinctive soulful, gospel-inflected funky house sound that set him apart from his peers. His carefully crafted sessions drew the attention of many and paved the way for opportunities to play alongside renowned DJs and performers such as Derrick Carter, Ralphi Rosario, David Harness, Ron Carroll, Tedd Patterson, Barbara Tucker and Ann Nesby. In 2003, Jeremy was personally selected as a resident by Frankie Knuckles to be the opening DJ for Frankie’s weekly Sunday Tea Dance at Hydrate Nightclub. Along with working at Gramaphone Records, Jeremy also held a 5 year Saturday residency at Cocktail and a 3 year residency at Hydrate Nightclub.
In 2005, Jeremy moved to San Francisco where he has continued to be heard at a number of important venues including The EndUp where he played for Fag Fridays and more recently Lookout, Comfort & Joy, and several disco sets at Go BANG!
Over the last few years, Jeremy has entered the world of production and remixing. Some of his recent work has been featured by heavy hitters such as Tedd Patterson, David Harness and Ralphi Rosario.
Together, Jimmy & Jeremy have played at Lookout, Comfort & Joy, Mystopia, Big Muscle and for David Harness’s Mighty Real Parties alongside icons such as Danny Krivit, Tedd Patterson and DJ Heather. This past November they were honored to be included in the lineup for Come Together at Good Room in Brooklyn alongside Jellybean Benitez, John Ceglia, Hex Hector, Morabito, Michael Fierman & Robbie Leslie. Their mutual passion for all types of dance music and the love they feel when they can share it continue to inspire them every time they get behind the decks, whether it be together or solo.
