Few DJ collectives have done as much to revitalize the joyous, inclusive spirit of classic club culture as London’s Horse Meat Disco. For two decades, the acclaimed four-member crew has championed the roots of underground nightlife, digging through rare disco cuts, soulful boogie, vintage house, and high-energy modern floorfillers. On Thanksgiving Sunday, they bring that irresistible party pedigree to NOIR, the intimate second-level space tucked inside the sprawling REBEL complex in the Port Lands.

HMD parties are celebrated worldwide for their welcoming, euphoric, and body-positive dancefloors, attracting an eclectic mix of dedicated clubbers, disco purists, and music lovers who prioritize good vibes above all else.
