MenPlayPHX was built with one mission in mind: to protect and empower our local LGBTQ+ nightlife, performers, and promoters.
When corporate ticketing platforms can disappear your listings overnight or turn their backs on queer events without warning, we knew it was time to take matters into our own hands.
We created this ticketing system as a local, independent, and unapologetically queer alternative—one that’s rooted in community, not corporate profit margins.
For many of us, these events are more than just parties—they’re a livelihood, a gathering place, and a lifeline. Drag shows, leather nights, pool parties, kink socials, fundraisers, and everything in between deserve a stable, safe place to thrive. With MenPlayPHX, our community doesn’t have to rely on platforms that have repeatedly proven they’ll drop us the moment things get controversial.
No surprise fees. No corporate overhead. Just support that stays local.
We’re not here to tack on a bunch of processing fees or take a cut from people already working hard to create safe, inclusive spaces. Our goal is simple: to work with our entertainers and organizers to create a win–win system that keeps money in the community and events thriving.
This is a system built by us, for us.
No gatekeepers. No censorship. No middlemen deciding if your event is “appropriate.”
If you’re a performer, promoter, venue, or organizer whose work helps make the Phoenix queer scene vibrant—this platform was made for you.
