Queer Attraction Lab

LGBTQ+ night out with a sexy science twist, hosted by TRAVIS ALABANZA & Dr Lust!

Ever wondered about the science of attraction? Speculated what drives those *sparks* to fly? If it's a masterclass in magnetism and queer sexual chemistry you’re after, then this one’s for you!

Hosted by TRAVIS ALABANZA, performance artist, theatre maker and poet, joined by leading attraction scientist Viren Swami as Dr. Lust, to answer all your quirky questions and debunk cupid’s myths.

You’ll take part in pairs and be guided through a series of titillating rounds, wearing blindfolds to explore the role touch, sound, taste and other senses play in attraction. You'll also have the chance to swap partners between each round.

Each round will get under the sheets to examine what science has to say about queer sexual chemistry. What makes a good chat up line? How does geography affect striking up connections, and what role do LGBTQ+ venues and dating apps play in this? How important is physical vs. non-physical appearance? And do aphrodisiacs really work?

Open to all, no matter where you are in your journey of love. Bring yourself, friend(s), partner(s), or ditch them to find a new playmate!

Taking place at The Chateau, limited £5 advance tickets available on Outsavvy so make sure to snap yours up.
