Suf­fra­gette City

Suf­fra­gette City is a free even­ing of anti-establishment polit­ics, music with per­form­ances, speeches from act­iv­ists in the area and a club night. With stalls from envir­on­mental, human­it­arian, and left wing polit­ical groups.

The night opens with a polit­ical cab­aret: a series of short talks from dif­fer­ent act­iv­ist and groups inter­spersed with musical acts, fol­lowed by a revolu­tion themed club night to give people a chance to mix, find out more inform­a­tion from the speak­ers, and have a look at the stalls run by the local act­iv­ist groups.

Essen­tially, it is an exper­i­ment to recre­ate the intim­acy and enter­tain­ment of a cab­aret mixed with the excite­ment and engage­ment of a polit­ical meet­ing. The aim of the night is both to pro­mote aware­ness of vari­ous causes and to provide a space for a good night out. The format of the night means the event will be quite informal and fun, giv­ing people who are new to Aber­deen a chance
to meet oth­ers with sim­ilar interests and to find out more about the dif­fer­ent act­iv­ist groups in the area.
