About us
In 2013, nestled in the heart of New York City at Santos Party House, DJ Dan Darlington ignited a spark that would transform the LGBTQ+ events scene. He created BRÜT, a leading underground gay party in the USA, quickly establishing it as an essential part of the city’s nightlife with a symphony of master beats and incredible House Tech awakening everyone’s soul.
Initially catering to men in leather and fetish gear, the brand has grown to celebrate confident libertine energy and the freedom to express oneself without judgment. Today, the architects behind the magic and crazy sexy chaos, Luciano Quintana and Dan Darlington, have expanded this vision into a powerhouse that unites over 40,000 people every year across more than 13 different cities in the USA, encouraging all partygoers to come in their sexiest, making BRÜT one of the most sought-after underground, gay-friendly parties in the country.
Today, BRÜT is renowned for hosting legendary events including the famous Halloween party in Los Angeles, Folsom Street Fair and Dore Alley in San Francisco, NYC Pride, Palm Springs Pride, Memorial Day and Market Days in Chicago, Pride and Halloween in San Diego, St. Patrick’s Day, MAL DC, and one of New York’s most iconic gay cruises. As we continue to grow with your incredible support, the movement is hitting new territory, expanding into Provincetown, Fort Lauderdale, Houston, Phoenix, and Portland.
