Storied Brains and Personalities of the Forum: has there ever been a year-round Fantasy Faire type dance club? If not why not?

[Hereafter Vortex]

Ya'll know all.  Surely in the history of SL there has been a dedicated Fantasy Club?  All the insanely creative avatars from Fantasy Faire need a place to twerk (Elven, Centaur and Dinkie and all the other things) - bootie the rest of the year.  It's one of the best things about SL!  Why can't we do it more?  Why don't we have a place to glitter and shine.  And flap and clop.  

(Disclaimer - yes yes I know - it costs money, it costs time and 'why don't you do it'.  I'm honestly curious if there has ever been such a thing.)

There was a pub venue called The Drunken Drow where you'd see fauns, elves, centaurs etc, though regular humans too. And a mermaid in a tank 🧜‍♀️

But I think it closed quite a few years ago.

So the idea of crowdfunding one came up in Fantasy Faire chat.  Is that possible?  Ya'll know all.

EDIT:  it could have an attached mall

I was at Club Zero the other day and there were 2 demons, a vampire and a large wolf boogeying... I'm not sure if that's usual as it was my first time there. Good music tho.

Chiaroscuro!

We have a Fantasy event every Saturday at 2pm, every event has a theme and it moves to a different location in the region each time so there's not a fixed club spot for it. If you join the group, you get a notice each Wednesday or Thursday of what the theme will be, and the landmark to the location comes out early on the Saturday. There's a contest with cash prizes for best costumes, usually with 3 or 4 winners. Typical themes might be Dark/Evil, Merfolk, Bellydance, etc.

Chiaroscuro also runs an annual event of its own; Fantasy Gay Pride, for 10 days every September, usually around the Equinox. It's not a shopping event but there are several events and parties each day, and a hunt that crosses 2 regions.

You can find the Chiaroscuro group on my in-world profile and the main region LM is here; http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Chiaroscuro/125/244/48

Wow thanks Rat Luv, Akane and Maitamo!  I'm still floating from the good feelings of Fantasy Faire and I want more!  Now there are places to go.  Ya'll are golden.

@Winter Dismantled I can now officially reveal that Chiaroscuro's theme for this weekend is "Dark Elves". Interpret that as you wish.  Though note that you don't have to match the theme to enter or even win the contest.
