Nestled within the Vakhushti Bagrationi Bridge in Georgia’s capital of Tbilisi is one of techno’s most revered and celebrated institutions, KHIDI. The club is a musical home to many artists and enthusiasts that make up the MERGE identity, but also a great source of inspiration for many that work to preserve a truly underground spirit and genuinely progressive ethos.

We invite KHIDI’s local residents Vulkanski and Liza Rivs to do their thing, along with two of their international residents and MERGE regulars, Boris and Phase Fatale. MERGE resident Ne/Re/A plays alongside Phase Fatale for the first time. Brooklyn local and KHIDI regular, Muerte Lenta, kicks things off.

As always, we remind you that the rave is a protest to all things systemic. We hold these truths to be self evident, that all ravers are created equal…

Let’s build bridges, not walls!

Merge is a Brooklyn-based, queer party that aims to cultivate sonic liminoid experiences through techno music. We will work together to incubate the collective queer body, and experience its transformation under the influence of techno. We seek release, mutual understanding, deeper access to the personal, interconnected, and ethereal. We honor the sound through dance, self expression, and hyper-immersion.

We have zero tolerance for physical, verbal, or sexual harassment. This includes non-consensual touching, violence, discriminatory language, or any behaviors that have a negative impact on the experience or the physical safety of other guests. If a problem or concern arises, guests are encouraged to locate a staff member for assistance. While on the dance floor, we encourage guests to keep conversations to a minimum and phones in their pockets.

Come correct and ready to sweat!
