RUBdown
Join our rubber family to wrap up Slick 2023 at UBQ for a relaxing Sunday wind-down and one last dance before heading back to reality. We want to celebrate our amazing community for being with us for the week, and share a drink, a hug, and the afterglow of a week of rubber. This year we welcome VicPaH to co-host our rubdown event.
SQUEAK
Melbourne Rubber is rolling up with a new circus themed SLICK this September, and the carnival ravers at BARBA are joining the festivities once again to host the official Saturday after party... prepare for balloon pups, colourful circus creatures, high flying antics and the delicious crack of the ringmasters whip.
SQUEAK 2023 is set to be a bouncing, bulging dance party and social event where we can come together in a safe, welcoming space for a night of community, expression and sweaty fun!
RUBBER WORKSHOP
Ever wanted to know how to fix that little tear or hole in your latex, so you can get more wear out of your collection?
