ORANGE IS THE NEW C*NT,

About the event

This event will be a vibrant celebration of ballroom culture, creativity, and diversity.

The Ballroom scene has long been a space of protection, empowerment, and artistic expression for BIPOC, Trans, and Queer individuals, particularly within minority communities here in Lisbon and we would be honoured to partner with anyone to help uplift and sustain this essential safe space.

The Kiki Ball brings together artists and performers from across Europe, including judges we have already confirmed from Spain, France, London, and Switzerland, thus offering partners a unique opportunity for authentic engagement with the communities shaping global music, fashion, nightlife, and digital culture.

Why should you sponsor?

At a time when cultural diversity and representation are more valued than ever, supporting the Kiki Ball offers a brand the opportunity to align with genuine values of inclusion and empowerment. This event celebrates Ballroom culture — a historic space of refuge, creativity, and affirmation for BIPOC, trans, and queer individuals — and reinforces the mission of building safe, inspiring communities.

By sponsoring the Kiki Ball, a company not only gains visibility with a vibrant and engaged audience but also demonstrates a real commitment to social diversity. This support goes beyond a symbolic gesture: it helps sustain an artistic and community space that fosters self-expression, confidence, and networks of support. Such authentic connection creates an emotional bond between the brand and a creative, loyal, and influential community — people who shape trends in music, fashion, digital culture, and nightlife.

Moreover, this partnership strengthens the brand’s reputation: it publicly signals that its values extend beyond commercial goals to include social development. Sponsorship fits into concrete corporate social responsibility (CSR) and ESG strategies, showing a willingness to invest in cultural change and lasting impact.

The return for the brand can also be practical: access to new audiences, increased loyalty from consumers who value inclusion, and positive media exposure. At the same time, sponsorship ensures the event’s financial sustainability, allowing it to remain accessible while empowering artists and participants from often marginalized backgrounds.

Ultimately, supporting the Kiki Ball is more than marketing — it is legacy. It is an investment in art, community, and social transformation, leaving a positive mark while uplifting a culture that deserves space, recognition, and celebration.
