Designed to celebrate creativity in all its forms, SlayOff! promises a night filled with music, artistry and Pride spirit.
Hosted by the iconic Ivy, the evening will feature a guest judging panel drawn from across Scotland’s creative scene, each offering insight, personality, and flair as they help crown our first-ever SlayOff! champion.
