Galactic Gala: Celestial Circus

On Friday April 11th Probe Ottawa X Miss Diagnosis present Galactic Gala: an out-of-this-world Showcase featuring drag, burlesque, and more!

Step right up and prepare for an interstellar spectacle! This edition of Galactic Gala transforms into Celestial Circus, where performance and play collide in a cosmos of immersive installations. Instead of a stage, the entire space becomes a living, breathing show—one you can move through, witness up close, and potentially even interact with.

Performance Installations

• 🎨 Body painting by Kitsune

• 🤡 Clowning around with Antituck

• 🦄 Unicorn installation with Unicorn Ryde

• 🪢 Dazzling Suspension with self suspender, NinjaCad

• 💧 Hydration station with our Domme Doll, Syren Nightshade

Event Schedule

• 8PM: Doors open

• 8:30PM: Performances start

• 10:30PM: Dungeon opens

• 2AM: Event ends

Once the performers have blown you away, the night doesn't stop! As the curtains close, Probe's dungeon will open and you're welcome to show us a little of what you can do. We'll transform into play party mode and keep the energy flowing til 2AM. Just looking for the play party? Come on by after the show and party into the night, the dungeon opens at 10:30PM.

Please note, our entry door will be locked after 12AM (midnight) for the safety of our members and staff.

Galactic Gala is happy to say that we pay every performer a guaranteed amount, however tips are still highly encouraged as all the performers put so much into these numbers. For ease, tip jars for each performer will be available. Feel free to tip the performer directly or utilize the tip jars throughout the show. Bring those $5 bills!! Miss Diagnosis will also have a square reader for credit/debit  tips— to be split among all performers.

Tickets are available on a sliding scale to promote inclusivity and accessibility. We offer limited “supported” tickets at a lower price for community members who might otherwise be unable to attend. Please choose the ticket price that makes this event accessible to you. If you’d like to support event accessibility, consider purchasing a “benevolent” ticket, which helps subsidize lower-price options. All ticket types provide the same access to the event.

A Probe membership is required to attend this event. If you haven't secured your membership yet, be sure to do so before the event! You can sign up for your membership on our site here or at Probe. Temporary 24 hour memberships are also available for $10 and can only be purchased at the door. 

At Probe, inclusivity is at the heart of everything we do. We welcome all individuals of all sexual orientations, genders, and identities. Our aim is to create an environment where everyone feels respected, valued, and free to express themselves authentically. Our venue is wheelchair accessible, with an elevator available. Our goal is to provide an accessible, inclusive space. If you have any questions or have specific accommodation requests, please reach out to us.

Our dedicated Dungeon Monitors (DMs) will be present throughout the venue, attentively supervising the play areas and offering assistance to ensure everyone's safety.
