Come and celebrate South Asian awesomeness with the Bitten Peach, the UK’s only gender-diverse Pan-Asian cabaret collective.

For this show – Peach Chutney – audiences will be called to the Queer Contact lounge before embarking on the ultimate travel experience. Celebrate South Asian heritage through the skies with in-flight games, Bollywood bops and five-star hospitality.

We’re big fans of The Bitten Peach, whose mission is to empower the queer Asian community by providing safe spaces, diversifying Asian representation, and educating non-Asians on racial issues.

Sit back, relax, fasten your seatbelts and enjoy the show.

Peach Chutney is being presented as part of Queer Contact Festival 2023 – be sure to check out our full preview.
