The Party Utility
This is a website for a past event, go back to the future!
In the year 3535, somehow mankind is still alive. Alien spaceships fill the sky. They have come, it’s time to go. They have sent a message, a place and a time for us to make contact.
Those who have decoded the message gather to welcome them. How many of those who receive the message are alien themselves? Have the aliens come in peace? Should we be afraid? Should we fight back?At the designated time, we shall hold a ceremony, sending the message that we are ready. Will they heed our call?
Well, the cows are still there. The aliens always had a thing for the cows. They were probably working together all along.
The Ascension (3K)
The aliens have arrived.Have they come to take us away?
Do they come in peace, or will they leave us in pieces?It finally is The End.

The aliens have always been with us. Maybe they are us. Maybe we are born from the stars? Are you one of the StarBorn? What kind of alien race are you descended from?
What about the Men (and Women) in black? Pictures of these strange figures even appear painted in the pyramids! The governments have been trying to hide the truth from us since the beginnings of time!
Do you think they come in peace? Will they take us with them? Maybe we should pray to them, maybe that will make them love us!Are you one of the chosen?
What about the probes? Do they still do that kind of thing? Will they do it to me? Please?
An end-times gathering. (Part of season 2 of our events) Fancy dress is encouraged, but not compulsory.Imagine a large house party full of interesting people, where slightly unusual things have a habit of happening.Party Utility events are collaboratively run events created by artists. They are fun, inclusive, and safe - with predominantly female security.Proceeds from the events go towards keeping the Limehouse Town Hall open and supporting more interesting things.
Dance like there is no tomorrow
It's time to go. Time to say goodbye to mother earth and head for the stars. We can start again. The aliens have come to save us all.Or have they.... ?
Maybe they just say they "come in peace"?The music is going to take you on a journey close to madness. The world is ending, throw your cares to the wind and let yourself free.
(Themed dress is encouraged, but optional)
Why did the aliens always pick on the cows? Was there something we never knew? Were they part of the plan?

We live in interesting times. The world seems to be falling apart all around us. The end is nigh!But every end is also a beginning. Accepting the end can be the very thing that brings us new life.Party Utility season 1 sought to create a stable foundation and to keep the doors of the Limehouse Town Hall open. In season 2 we go further, seeking to build stronger connections and find a way to create a community.In these dark times, we can hide, afraid in our homes, trying to survive, to scrape together the pennies in fear. Or maybe, we can face down the pain, let go of our desire for comfort and create something new.Well, we're not going to save the world by throwing a few parties, but, we might be able to make it a bit better for some.Come get involved. Become more than a consumer, take part. Lets make something new.

Surviving the crisis
Party to stay alive.In 2022 the Limehouse Town Hall was in financial trouble. After shutting the doors in the Covid Years (tm) the building was struggling, the rising energy costs were the first problem. So, we started to host some events to pay the bills.We became the Party Utility out of necessity, and created a season of utility themed events.
