About Resonance Collective: Resonance Collective is a tight-knit group of friends, DJ’s, producers and promoters operating night and day on unceded lək̓ʷəŋən Territories. Initially conceived in 2021 as a channel to throw parties their way, they combated a noted lack of diversity and representation within the local dance music scene in Victoria by throwing gender & genre diverse dance music events with a focus on quality of sound, artistic integrity, support for emerging artists & community safety. Three years later, recently incorporated as a non-profit, Resonance Collective continues to weave and nurture a mycelic web of underground connections in the city.

They will intervene if someone is receiving unwanted attention, can help folks in need to find a way home, and generally serve as go-to support personnel should any problems arise.

  • VMF After Dark events aim to be a safe space for people of all genders, ethnicities, abilities, and sexual orientations to come together and enjoy music side by side. We encourage you to come dressed to express your own unique identity and ask that you respect other people's right to do the same without judgment.

  • We acknowledge that this event takes place on the traditional lands of the Lək̓ʷəŋən speaking peoples: Songhees Nation and xʷsepsəm (Esquimalt) Nation.

    We ask that you take a moment to consider the history of the land that we gather on, your relations with local Indigenous people, and what each of us can do to foster meaningful reconciliation now and into the future.
