Hall of Eyes
A corridor of velvet and gold that watches you arrive. Every eye follows. Stare back; they like it.
Scroll. The rooms move with you. Touch anything.
RUMPUS! is one night of house music and art, built by Kiara for the people who have been part of her story in Surat. You are one of them.
There is no queue to join and no name to drop. Come to dance, come to stare, come to be stared at. Leave your rules at the door.
K.
Your invitation is waiting for an answer.
Your invitation carries one star. Pass it to one person who should be in the room. First name only; we will do the rest.
Say yes first. Then the star is yours to pass.

Four rooms.
One night.
A corridor of velvet and gold that watches you arrive. Every eye follows. Stare back; they like it.
Three sounds, one material, one card with your name in it. It is rarely wrong about how you dance.
Give the wheel a push. It has something to tell you.
Afro house, baile funk, disco funk, groovy house. Kiara on the decks and the whole room in her hands, until the lights give up.
The morning after. The photographs and the full recording of the set, sent only to the people who were in the room.
Kiara played her first show in Surat in October 2017.
Since then it has been years of clubs and festivals, one dance floor after another. RUMPUS! is her bringing all of it home, for the people who were there at the start.
Ten cities follow. Surat goes first.
Four stations for the hours before the door. Put one on while you get ready. The wall behind this page is made of sequins, it is playing a film, and it keeps time with whatever you choose.
Chrome, sequins, velvet, neon. If it catches the light, it is correct. Beige can stay home.
The time is written there, and only there. So is everything else you need.
We will take the photographs. You take the night. The Afterglow brings you the rest.
It does not grow at the door. If you hold a star, pass it before the night.
