Mighty Hoopla 4 June 2017

I spent a pretty much sleepless Saturday night on 3 June, anxiously refreshing Guardian website and twitter for updates about the terrorist attack at London Bridge and Borough Market. What a great antidote to go to the Mighty Hoopla festival in Victoria Park in Hackney for my friend Louise’s birthday the following day – a boozy, celebratory and confrontational afternoon of drag queens, butch lezzas and fags-in-your-face. It felt extra defiant to be surrounded by unapologetic freaks clad in chaps and jockstraps with glitter in their beards. We spent pretty much the entire time at The Glory’s Bird Cage stage for performances by Baby Lame, John Sizzle and Jonny Woo. Stay fierce!
