The night will be seamlessly brought together by our amazing Mistress of Ceremonies – Alix Fox . Alix is the alternative culture journalist, TV presenter and fashion aficionado and is best known for her work as an editor on Bizarre magazine, although she casts her neon nylon net far and wide, appearing everywhere from the couch of ITV’s This Morning, chatting to Philip Scholfield and Holly Willoughby in her role as a sex educator, to popping up on the cover of The Telegraph‘s Ultratravel magazine, for whom she works as a model and stylist. She’s also collaborated with the BBC, E4, Channel 4, Time Out, Men’s Fitness, and many more big names, as well as contributing to a new hardback book about graffiti, MONOKROME 2. As a live host, she’s entertained crowds at Secret Garden Party festival, the Bizarre Balls, the TVX Porn Awards, and Skin Two events, and is a long-time friend of London Fetish Weekend. Furthermore, she’s an Ambassador for Lovehoney – ‘the sexual happiness people’ – Sh! Erotic Emporium, and TheyFit custom-tailored condoms. Best of all, though, she’s the most enthusiastic, pun-spewing, wide-grinning, quick-witted, fast-talking compere we know, who genuinely enters into the spirit of every event she attends, loves partying with the crowd until the lights come on, and has hugs, high fives and time to chat to every guest she meets.

This gal is one of us, much loved by the fetish community, and always ready to bring the Foxy fun!

The later part of the evening will be getting you warmed up for the weekend and really getting it all started - our deviant dance DJs providing the soundtrack for the night are:

Simon Iridium - 9pm - 12
Bam Bo Tang – 12 - 2am
Miles Gorfy – 2 - 4am

Headlining is Bam Bo Tang AKA Lucy Stone, as she told us “life could not be any better!”
As one half of Zoo Boutique - the UKs pioneering touchscreen DJs (DJ Mag Tech Winners 2011), she has enjoyed huge success after headlining Pacha for Space and Kinkyfunk whilst also being interviewed live on Channel 4's 'Sunday Brunch Show' watched by over a million viewers. In early 2012, Lucy began her weekly Saturday night show 'The Switch' on Hayes 91.8 FM and monthly Twisted Disco mix on Ministry of Sound radio, and it's clear this London lass shows no sign of stopping! Lucy has a busy UK and international schedule playing at high profile events at Es Paradis - Ibiza, Ibiza Rocks, The Geisha - China, Paradise Beach - Greece, The Secret Club - Germany, Lumine Beach - Spain, Moscow & Pacha - London.

Lucy is also a music consultant for Warner Chappell Production Music, compiling music for leading TV shows such as MTV, Top Gear, X Factor, I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here, Gok Wan's Fashion Fix and Eastenders.

Warming up the event is one of our favourite DJs, Simon Iridium. Simon has been DJing in London’s Fetish Clubs for more than 10 years, starting off at the infamous Wicked parties in Surrey. When Club Subversion opened it’s doors he was the first DJ asked to become a resident and has been bouncing around Subversion's various DJ booths ever since, spinning the tunes that drove the dance floor of London’s premiere Play meets Dance club into sweaty paroxysms of pleasure. He has also graced the turntables for London’s biggest annual fetish party ‘The Rubber Ball’ on several occasions and can be seen launching the dance floor of the already legendary ‘Imaginarium’ nights into the stratosphere. Renowned for his enthusiasm and energy behind the decks and his ear for the best new releases and remixes this is one DJ sure to get the London Fetish Weekend attendees dancing their heels into hedonist heaven (and leaving the ladies feet in dire need of pampering).

Taking over from Bam Bo Tang will be Subversion's Music Director Miles Gorfy. With over 15 years of experience playing nationally and internationally for all of the big name brands, his inimitable, uplifting and energetic style has established a reputation like no other. Aiming to bring the fun factor back to the dance floor, expect big bass lines, crazy samples and filthy beats for filthy minds.

See you all there!
