Panopticon at the Disco: Event Recap

We are still buzzing from the incredible energy of Panopticon at the Disco, and we want to take a moment to thank everyone who made this year’s celebration truly unforgettable. From start to finish, the night was filled with dancing, laughter, community, and connection, and we’re so grateful to everyone who was a part of it.

The stunning SideBar in San Diego’s Gaslamp Quarter set the perfect backdrop for the evening, and its team went above and beyond to help bring our vision to life. Thank you for hosting us again and ensuring the event ran seamlessly.

A huge and heartfelt thank-you to our amazing sponsors, whose support made every moment of this event possible:

Cooley, Troutman Pepper Locke, Safeguard Privacy, Transcend, Hogan Lovells, Cyera, Osano, BakerHostetler, McDermott Will & Emery, DataGrail, Hintze Law, EDPO, Kuma, IAPP, The Privacy Pro, De Jesus Consulting, Karbon, Center for Democracy & Technology, and Kyle Kessler. Your partnership means more now than ever, and we are deeply grateful for your continued commitment to supporting the LGBTQ+ community and creating spaces where we can celebrate together.

We also want to shine a spotlight on the incredible talent who made the night so memorable, DJ Ike Bennion, who kept the dance floor alive all night long, and Drag queens Strawberry and Maya Glitterzone, who brought the sparkle, energy, and unforgettable performances.

And of course, thank YOU, everyone who attended, danced, tipped our performers, shared laughs, and helped make this event such a success. The energy you brought made the night something truly special. We will be sharing final numbers and impact totals once everything is finalized, and we can’t wait to show you the difference this event helps make.

Thank you again for being part of this incredible night. We can’t wait to see you next year, under the disco ball once again.
