THE PARTY

What it is: A rave by puppets for puppets (and their humans) What it is not: a drum circle

Does your life lack whimsy? Do you wanna party with puppets going absolutely bonkers to Atlanta's top puppet DJ? Are you okay with not attending a drum circle for one night? This is the completely unhinged event for you.

Puppets get in free all night. Free finger puppet for the first 100 ravers. Come get weird.

What to expect:

A legit rave. Iconic DJ Kandi Sprinkles is the only puppet DJ trained and mentored by NonsenseATL's own DJ Kimber and she's ready to bring pure energy and PLUR vibes to the dance floor.

An interactive, immersive EDM experience. Chaotic joy and ridiculous surprises all night. If you leave without smiling, please see a doctor.

Puppets everywhere. It's not called a puppet rave for nothing. When the beat drops, the googly eyes go crazy and the fur flies. All puppets are welcome.

No puppet requirement! If you are a human, you do NOT have to bring a puppet to enjoy the rave. Puppets are a welcoming community, so they're cool with you showing up sans puppet. If you WANT a puppet, and don't have one to accompany you, you can do a $10 ticket add-on when you check out and we'll have a charming animal puppet waiting for you at check-in).

What NOT to expect:

A drum circle. Not gonna happen.

Everyone is welcome!

No matter your age (21+), race, sexual orientation, gender identity, or dance skill level, you're welcome here. Zero tolerance for creeps or bigots.
