For one night only, step into the fabulous world of Daniel Lismore and celebrate the art of being yourself.

The Lismorian Ball will be a decadent bank holiday evening of exceptional DJs, art and performances under the Herbert Art Gallery & Museum’s dynamic covered court.

Drinks will be served throughout the evening from a pop-up bar, and performances will include a contortionist, cyr wheel and lollipop aerial art.

The soundtrack for the evening has been co-curated by Daniel Lismore and Ghost Town, Coventry's biggest electronic music events brand. 

Headlining is NTS Radio Resident Eclair Fifi, one of Scotland’s best DJs and visual artists. Her taste in music and style is wide ranging & intuitive. Expect House, Techno, Italo disco and Latin freestyle smoothing off electro, South US rap and Top 40 R&B a capellas breathing new life into wobbly electronica.

Supporting will be Ghost Town's invited residents from Selextorhood and Hooker Club - two of the regions most vital collectives championing inclusivity for LGBTQIA+ / POC / women identifying artists. Expect R&B, Hip Hop, Disco and House music on rotation, with sets from DJ Fansnap, Dee'Cleo b2b Czafariii, Yang b2b Daniel Brown and other Ghost Town residents 

Guest can also enjoy a free drink on arrival at our pop-up bar, sponsored by Absolut UK, and Daniel's exhibition, Be Yourself, Everyone Else Is Already Taken, will also be open for you to explore.
