Returning to Sydney/Eora on Thursday 30 October and headlined by UK garage pioneer DJ EZ plus two of Aotearoa’s most unapologetic forces, Lady Shaka b2b HALFQUEEN, BWS Cool Room is a portal to the unexpected. Set to transform a secret location, only revealed to guests the week of the event, tickets to the late-night, multi-room room takeover will be  free to those who register.

For its 2025 debut, BWS Cool Room has teamed up with local tastemakers Astral People and the bold new drop Johnnie Walker Black Ruby – a blackberry and soda serve – to bring together global icons, underground heroes and the next wave of club culture in immersive, genre-fluid spaces alive with music, movement, and unexpected moments.

With every legendary party starting with a trip to the Cool Room, guests will step through a virtual BWS Cool Room – a literal portal featuring interactive visual art by Sam Price – before entering the as yet undisclosed location. Upon arrival, they’ll be welcomed to a complimentary Johnnie Walker Black Ruby to kick off the night with an elevated ritual, with the bold serve available across the venue throughout the evening. From there, the night unfolds across multiple dance floors, each celebrating a different corner of club culture, creating an immersive world built for music, movement and connection.

As a true legend of the underground and one of the most technically gifted DJs on the planet, UK garage pioneer DJ EZ built his name in the ’90s through pirate radio, mixtapes and marathon club sets. With his legendary Boiler Room set regarded as one of the best UKG sets of all time, DJ EZ has become a revered selector that today moves seamlessly between garage, bassline, house, grime and beyond.

Having turned international dancefloors into a celebration of joy and diversity, Lady Shaka brings together music and art that challenges the mainstream, reflecting her queer identity, and deep connection to the moana (ocean) and diasporas she belongs to. HALFQUEEN, meanwhile, specialises in energetic global club music, with a mission to decolonise the dancefloor and uplift marginalised communities worldwide.
