About Us
We, Team Temptation Saturday, are a group of friends responding to a growing need of the gay
community in the Metro - that is to “host and mount a party that will go beyond everyone’s
expectations”. “Temptation Saturday” is a volunteer-managed, not-for-profit event that originated as
an idea, an idea of people getting together, boys getting together, and going to a certain place, to
have really great parties and enjoy themselves. Here, “everyone is welcome and celebrated,
regardless of whether you’re gay, bisexual, trans, discreet gays, or whatever you want to be. When
you come to a party that we host, everybody will be treated as a member of the family. “Temptation
Saturday” intends to be a LGBT dance event; a party to respond to the diversity of the community
and culture, gathered together in one place to enjoy the night as we dance for hours and hours of
good music with friends and new-found friends while enjoying our drinks.
Introduction
This is an “Aqua-holic” Gay Party meaning a pool and drinking party. We launched back in
December 2021, had our second event last March 2022, our third event was held last October 8,
2022, and our recent event was held last February 25, 2023. Our aim is to bring together a great
community of like-minded people who love music, fun, and partying, and enjoy their time together
with all members of the gay community. This party allows you to really let loose and express yourself
without any judgment, knowing that your sexuality will be welcomed and celebrated. Our party feels
particularly special because it attracts a diverse crowd, with men of all ages and nationalities. This is
also a fundraising event to benefit to fight against HIV/AIDS.
#PartyWithAMessage - One goal of our team is to raise visibility on certain issues that affect the
community. Given the state of the SOGIE bill in the country and the unjust discrimination the gay
community continues to face today, it has never been more important to take a stand, discuss, talk,
and resist the prejudice. The event hosts multiple efforts that support everything from education on
specific issues to celebration. Perhaps one of the most important initiatives we have is HIV testing,
which accommodates everyone in the community and in the future to our allies.
Though we know that the world still faces COVID-19 and mass gatherings have been already
allowed for months, we are still taking precautionary measures to avoid the spread of the virus; we
have decided to still push this through with the proviso that existing protocols will be followed such
as mandatory presenting of vaccination card, the social distancing of the participants by choice,
and wearing of face mask.
Temptation Saturday 1
With gender equality, unity, acceptance, and HIV/AIDS discussion as our main focus, our first
‘Temptation Saturday ‘event was held last Dec. 11, 2021, at Pansol, Laguna. It was attended by 65
attendees.
As we celebrate PRIDE MONTH this June, we come together to provide a safe space
for the LGBTQI+ community - to discuss, inspire and realize what everyone can do to
create change in the gay community. Our event will be held on June 03, 2023; 7 PM
at Pansol, Laguna. It will be attended by 350-400+++ participants from different
areas of the Philippines. The program will discuss and highlight different topics such
as Pride Celebration, HIV/Aids prevention, and Gender discussion. There will be
concessionaires around the venue, and buffet meals, drinks will be provided. We
have invited drag queens to perform, spoken poetry artists, LED dancers, Gogo boys,
queer artists, and DJ, etc. A lot of activities will happen simultaneously as well. All of
this, simply because we love; simply because we have committed ourselves to be
here for each other.
Through this event, we look back at our past, document our present, and campaign
for a better future for the LGBTQI+ community. Our celebration of Pride does not
end; rather, we use the momentum that Pride has built for the further work ahead.
Join us - let us forge a more inclusive society for all beyond Pride Month.
