To Wong Foo – Outdoor Camp Classic Screening

👠 Three queens. One broken-down Cadillac. And a whole lot of heart.

OutdoorLads are heading to First Street, Manchester for an evening of camp, comedy and drag royalty, with a special outdoor screening of To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar — part of SCENE: Manchester LGBTQ+ Film Festival.

After a pageant win in New York, drag queens Noxeema Jackson (Wesley Snipes), Chi-Chi Rodriguez (John Leguizamo), and Vida Boheme (Patrick Swayze) set off for Hollywood in a vintage Cadillac. But when their car breaks down in a small town, their pit stop turns into something much more meaningful — bringing glitter, glamour, and life lessons to the locals in this beloved 90s queer comedy.

This event is free and unticketed, all seating is on a first come first served basis so arrive early to avoid disappointment. We'll meet at 5:30pm to grab a drink together before the film starts at 6pm.

Join us as we celebrate courage, friendship, and the dazzling spirit of To Wong Foo — where every journey sparkles with love and pride!

If you're new to OutdoorLads then come along, grab a drink, find a friendly face and say hello! It's also the perfect opportunity for members to make friends and catch up with others, and discuss what’s new and the upcoming events.

Socials are a great event for both new and existing members. If you are in any way uncertain about joining OutdoorLads or are concerned about fitness/ability or whether OutdoorLads is for you, then do come along, have a drink with us and see why members have made friends through OutdoorLads.

If you have any questions, please do send the event leader a message :-)
