for $119 we would have thought we would have use of the 'usual' areas

It's too Pricey for just 1 venue

This sucks...why weren't we told this when tickets were released. We are coming up from Melbourne, booked flights, accommodation and tickets, as we expected a few venues to be open as per usual, with contrasting styles of music..had I known that it was this style of music AND only one venue I would not have booked anything......the ticket price was already extravagant and higher than previous years.......now we are told we get less for our dollar and after we already booked....sorry sleaze but this will be my last one........

Perhaps they've opted for quality over quantity?

Good value too- pay for three years and the membership (I think) is only 30.00AUD per year. And you get discounts for both Mardi Gras and Sleaze Ball parties.

there are two dance spaces...the forecourt and the hordern..

the forecourt is so not a space. PLEASE.
next we'll be calling the toilets and foyers spaces.

Oh dear do people really buy this that Sleaze is dirty now! Sorry Mardi Gras you use the same publicity every year and no one believes it. That's why you now have only one venue open. Give up and reinvent, maybe create a new party. God knows you might sell more tickets.

yes, i do have to agree with you. i feel like the phrase "dark and dirty" gets thrown about far too loosely these days. entertainment quarter are not interested in having anything "dark and dirty" on their premises.

They should be ashamed of themselves calling it Sleaze Ball without the Dome...just reinforces why we don't go Mardi Gras and Sleaze any more...the parties are a pale shadow of what they were in the 80s and 90s ...sigh....

F*cken pathetic. This is exactly why we don't go to these 'parties' any more ... that and the fact that you get emails from Ticketek flogging tickets to them without even mentioning that they're HOMOSEXUAL events.

I agree the price is too much for only 1 venue, and I agree that the forecourt isn't a "space", it's somewhere to meet your friends when you lose them... not that you can lose anyone with only the hordern.

Let's see if they come through...

a sleaze without the dome is like a night without stars - as anyone who went to the party last night would have realised.

it's certainly my last sleaze - for me and for just about everyone i know. if that's gay sydney these days i want no part in it.
