Haus of Yolo

Party cabaret. Live sewing. World-class circus.

From sell-out seasons in Canada and Aotearoa, step inside the glitter-fuelled chaos of fashion label HAUS of YOLO, presented by Dust Palace and Cluster Arts International.

Each night, head designer (and part-time conman) Welt Couture will create their latest “Adelaide” collection live on stage — as acrobats, models, and misfits bring each look to life through jaw-dropping circus and camp comedy.

Fast fashion has never been faster, funnier, or riskier. From Aotearoa’s daring circus company The Dust Palace, this is couture on a deadline.

You only live once — but if you do it right, once is enough.

“Queer joy” - Stir Vancouver

“Thrilling and sexy.” - Red Raven

“A Must See Extravaganza: Haus of Yolo was the perfect balance between comedic gold, awe inspiring talent, and jaw dropping acrobatics. “- Craccum
