Town (2009 8th St., N.W.) is ending its “WTF” holiday parties after a seven year run. The club will hold its final “WTF” party on Sunday, July 3 from 10 p.m.-3 a.m

“We’ve had seven solid years of late-night fried chicken, Pu$$y Noir’s milk showers, Dirrty Pony’s disappearing act, JaxKnife’s radioactive bearlesque, Salvadora Surrealness and Rupaul’s Drag Race Season 10 or 11 contestant BaNaka!,” reads the Facebook event post.

“WTF has had a good run on holiday weekends, but she is finally taking her own gaycation. Join us for one last* hurrah. Take this opportunity to wear that lewk you’ve always wanted to wear, to bring that squirrelfriend you’ve always wanted to bring or eat that hotdog you’ve always wanted to eat in front of that boy you always wanted show how well you eat a hot dog,” the post continues.

The event post says that the WTF parties and performances may still appear at other locations in the future. WTF parties usually occurred during holidays such as Thanksgiving, Easter and Martin Luther King Jr. day.

The final party’s theme is Happy Ending. It will include performances by BaNaka, Pu$$y Noir, JaxKnife and Salvadora Dali. Ed Bailey and Aaron Riggins will play music for the night.
