A special night for our Cis-Female, Non-Binary, and Trans folk. Night Spa only hosts these events 4 times a year and they create such a unique space for people to learn, explore and expand their boundaries in an all-accepting environment. There is truly something freeing about surrounding yourself with like-minded individuals. These events are a mix of socializing, relaxing and play. The people who attend create such an amazing chance for you to truly be yourself, to grow and to make new connections. If you have not been to a Femmes & Themmes event before you are not going to want to miss this opportunity as our Pride edition is one of the busiest of the year. This party runs for 3 hours and is immediately followed by our Pink Pony Pride Party! Night Spa is Halifax’s only queer bathhouse. It is private, members only so only Night Spa members and their guests may attend. While everyone is welcome to apply to become a member, we are queer focused. We are queer owned and operated, as our staff are all queer/trans with a couple of allies too. There is no fee to apply or become a Night Spa member. You do pay an entry fee by either renting a locker or upgrading to a private room when you attend. We do not accept same da applications or walk-ins at the door so apply now to attend a future event. Be certain to check-off that you are interested in our Femmes & Themmes parties when applying.

Night Spa is a queer space and Halifax’s only mixed gender, clothing optional venue. For over 20 years this location has been a bathhouse that has primarily been focused on cis-male interactions. Night Spa moved in 3 years ago and opened the space up to members of all gender. This very special Pride event will celebrate the changes at this venue and welcomes all who are 19+ to apply to become Night Spa members. This event is very social with folks hanging out in our lounge area, soaking in the hot tub and making friends while sweating it out in the sauna. Attending a clothing optional venue like this can seem very daunting at first but there is something so comforting with surrounding yourself with like-minded people. Being comfortable is key so go at your own pace and bring some options for outfits as you can store things in your rented locker or private room. Our Pride events are great at subverting sexpectations. All first timers recieve a tour when they first arrive that not only goes over where everything is and how the equipment works but also goes over our rules and etiquette. Many people attend Night Spa for different reasons and it’s important to communicate and inquire what others are looking for. Consent is key with all of our interactions in the space and you will be comforted with how adult everyone behaves in an adult space like this with adult activities happening. More information about this event and the venue are available once you become a member. We currently have over 5000 Night Spa members and for legal purposes everyone must be a member or the guest of a member in order to attend. We do not accept walk-ins or accept same day applications so apply today in order to attend events in the future. This is the only Saturday night that Night Spa is open during the 2025 Halifax Pride Festival and Pride is always one of our busiest times of year. Events often sell out so be sure to apply for membership early so you can book and reserve your space. Our staff and volunteers are always around to answer any questions you may have prior to your visit or during one of our parties. Come join Night Spa during Pride this year. You are really not going to want to miss this!
