This one
is for you.
RUMPUS! is one night of house music and art, built by Kiara for the people who were there along the way. You were.
Afro house, baile funk, disco funk and groovy house, in rooms you walk through rather than a room you stand in. Nothing is for sale at the door, and nobody talks their way in.
There is only the list, and this invitation with your name behind it. If it finds you, you'll know.
You said yes.
Your invitation is held. The address comes to you on 22 December, and the door will know your name.
A star is held for . Their invitation travels with yours.
Not
announced.
Somewhere in Surat there is a door with light coming round the edges. That is all anyone gets for now.
Revealed 22 December to those who said yes.

Leave your rules
at the door.
Four spaces. Walk them in any order.
- 01Hall of EyesA corridor that watches back. Every eye turns when you do.
- 02The Fortune TellerSit down, pick three sounds, and be told who you are after midnight.
- 03The FloorOne room, one booth, Kiara at the decks. Hands up, phones down.
- 04The AfterglowThe morning after: the photographs and the recording of the set, sent only to those who came.
She is bringing
it home.
Kiara played her first show in Surat in October 2017. Since then it has been years of clubs and festivals, a long way from that first room. RUMPUS! is her bringing all of it home, and after Surat the night travels to nine more cities.
Silent clips from her set at The Grid, Kolkata. The page plays the groove with them.
