Lemonade Presents x Hijinks: Queerness on Film

A Pride Month celebration of LGBTQIA+ Cinema, Community & Creativity

In celebration of Pride Month, creative talent agency Lemonade, in partnership with creative agency, Hijinks, is proud to present Queerness on Film - an evening dedicated to bold queer cinema, performance, and community. The event takes place on Thursday 26th of June at 7 pm at the legendary All is Joy Studios in the heart of Soho and promises a vibrant, multi-sensory celebration of LGBTQIA+ voices, identity, and resilience.

Hosted by the award-winning drag king Loose Willis, this special evening spotlights a curated programme of short films by LGBTQIA+ filmmakers, whose work explores love, joy, protest, and the radical act of visibility through a uniquely queer lens.

“Our mission has always been to elevate underrepresented voices in the creative industries,” said Corin West, Managing Director at Lemonade Reps. “Queerness on Film is more than a screening- it’s a celebration of queer imagination and a space for joyful resistance, dialogue, and connection. We’re proud to partner with Hijinks to make this happen during such a meaningful month.”

The film programme, curated by Hijinks, takes audiences on a journey through imaginative worlds, tender relationships, and radical queer histories.

“As a queer agency founder, shining a spotlight on some of the incredible queer talent within the advertising industry feels more important than ever,” said Marc Allenby, Co-Founder and Chief Creative Officer of Hijinks. “The industry needs to come together to celebrate this diverse and inspiring talent—not just now, but always. I warmly invite you to join Hijinks and Lemonade in cheering them on and supporting this moment."

The evening continues with a live performance by movement artist Duane Nasis, whose haunting piece When The Night Is Over explores themes of love and longing with cinematic beauty.

At 8:30 PM, the party shifts upstairs for an afterparty with a vibey set by DJ MisterChaa serving up queer joy and dancefloor heat until 11:30 PM.

Beyond the screen and party, guests can engage with an immersive gallery space and a studio featuring a looped screening of KINGDOM and a placard-making station. From 8:30–9:30 PM, Loose Willis, a member of the Pecs Collective will lead this hands-on creative activity - encouraging dialogue around protest, expression, and collective queer action.

Come for the films, stay for the vibes.
