Underground Nomads

06/10/2026

🖤 ATTENTION NOMADS 🖤
Apparently the Universe rolled a natural 1 on venue logistics this month.

Fear not.

The bards are still barding, the dancers are still dancing, the weirdos are still weirding, and Underground Nomads is still very much happening.

Our next gathering will take place at:
🍷 MJA Vineyards 328-A Ingalls Street Santa Cruz, CA 95060
📍 Doors: 6:30 PM 🎭 Show: 7:00 PM

Same date. Same time. Same cast of suspiciously attractive troublemakers.

Only the location has changed.

Think of it as a side quest.
We're grateful to everyone who helped make sure this adventure continues uninterrupted, proving once again that community is what happens when people refuse to let a little chaos ruin a perfectly good evening.
Please update your maps, tell your friends, and join us for an evening of music, performance, revelry, dark glamour, and whatever happens when a bunch of artists are left unsupervised.

🎲 Roll for initiative. 🍷 Roll for wine. 🖤 Roll for charisma.

Come thirsty. There are plenty of excellent food options nearby, because adventuring on an empty stomach is how parties end up fighting goblins with disadvantage.
As always, Underground Nomads is a safe haven for artists, dreamers, dancers, misfits, romantics, night creatures, and anyone who has ever looked around and thought, "my people have to be around here somewhere."

We'll see you at MJA.

🔥 UNDERGROUND NOMADS IS BACK — APRIL 25 🔥

If your Saturday night plans don’t involve
hips, glitter, or a mild identity crisis…
we can fix that.

💃 April 25 @ Vino by the Sea
Doors 6:30 PM
Show 7:00 PM

Featuring a lineup that absolutely should not be this hot in one room:

Alys
Djinn
Sparks
Rainbow Sprinkles
Jacqui
Arya

Expect:
✨ fusion
✨ bellydance
✨ burlesque
✨ and at least one moment where you question your life choices (in a good way)

This is not a sit politely and sip wine kind of night.
This is a “lean forward, clutch your drink, and text your friends mid-show” kind of night.

Come for the talent.
Stay because you’re emotionally compromised.

📍 Vino by the Sea
🎟️ Get there early. We fill up.

Listen.

2026 has already been a lot.

Too much news.
Too many emails.
Too many people behaving like they were raised by raccoons.

Which is exactly why this Saturday we are correcting the timeline.

For one night only the Underground Nomads return to do what we do best:

Create the kind of party where strangers become friends, dancers appear out of nowhere, and everyone leaves wondering why life can’t always feel like this.

Music.
Performance.
Unexpected moments.
Beautiful weirdos.
Possibly a little magic.

Doors open at 7:30.

If you’ve been before, you already know what happens.

If you haven’t been before… this is your warning that you are about to miss the best day of your life and we will absolutely be talking about it afterwards.

Come curious.
Come dramatic.
Come ready to dance or just watch the madness unfold. March madness.

The world may be chaotic, but for a few hours we’re fixing it the only way we know how.

With a party.

Underground Nomads
Saturday
Doors 7:30

Bring friends.
Or make them there.

Santa Cruz… mark your calendars!

Underground Nomads is back and we’ve got dates rolling all the way through September. Yes, plural. Yes, we’re committing.

We’ve got some delicious evening hangs on deck AND a few brunch-time shows in the works (because honestly… why should nightlife have all the fun?).

Think friends.
Think performance.
Think that slightly glamorous energy we always seem to conjure when we gather near the water.

If you’ve been meaning to come out — this is your nudge.
If you’ve been before — you already know.

And… we’re looking!

If you’ve got an act (dance or otherwise) that would fit our mischievous, art-forward, community-loving vibe, reach out. We’re building some really fun lineups and would love to connect with fresh faces and returning favorites alike.

Mark all the dates through September.
Circle them. Screenshot them. Tell your friends.

Let’s make some magic Santa Cruz.

What a night! Thank you to all of the amazing performers that came out, and the folks who came out to support.
