The Practice
Centred around techno, Venom brings you the odd party and live DJ mixing sessions streamed online, slithering out of the space where we first learned to bend time.
Our collective exists to bring quality, immersive techno rave experiences to Wellington, contributing to its growing scene.
The Reason
Rave culture was born in the margins. In spaces claimed by those the world called dangerous. Venom honours that legacy of resistance, a reminder that whatβs cast as threatening often carries its own power and strength.
Venom is alchemy: turning what was meant to poison into liberation. Life holds shadow, and the dancefloor has always been a place to release, process and rise above it together.
Venom is reclamation: a refusal to be softened or sanitised and a celebration of the communities that forged rave culture in the beginning. Our collective embraces the raw and the rebellious.
The Invitation
Venom thrives on collaboration. DJs, VJs, lighting artists, sound techs, photographers, videographers and those who work behind the scenes all have a place here. Feel the pull? Click the button below and tell us how youβd like to get involved.
