PRESS RELEASE
FishSeeksBicycle presents
The Fire and Ice Winter Ball Sat Dec 2nd, The Old Firestation, Bournemouth.
The open-minded and downright rude party movement marches on with unlawfully good bands, performance, DJ's, stalls, sideshows, ridiculous revelry and dress-up debauchery; Returning to the Fire Station, two years later with 3 themed rooms of seasonal ambience.
Dress= Red or white, dark or light.
A battle of the elements…will the fire rage and the ice melt - or will hell freeze over?
Think:
Fire- Hell, Dantes inferno, sin and damnation, tribes, dark ritualistic squalor
Ice – Heaven, Purity, Siberia, Narnia, snowqueens, fur hats, vodka, alpine chic
9.30pm - 4am. Last entry 1.30am.
Tickets - £7
£11 on the door, £1 off with a flyer
We have had to raise the price slightly to compensate for the venue hire costs and all the extra performers and decour planned for this one off spectacular
Bypass the queue with a ticket, but please please buy early as no regulars should miss out!
