SMĒDE

What began as intimate gatherings among friends has organically evolved into something special, yet remains true to its core - a celebration of house music in its purest form.

For the first time ever, FILTER welcomes the new year, marking our final chapter of 2025. We're taking over a fresh space, transforming it with immersive installations and our signature audiophile-grade sound system that lets every beat breathe.

True to our ethos, we keep it intimate - just 150 tickets. Because real magic happens when there's room to dance, space to connect, and freedom to lose yourself in the music. Our carefully selected lineup features both cherished local artists and international guests who understand the soul of house music.

This isn't just another party - it's a carefully crafted experience where every detail matters and everyone contributes to the vibe. Face control maintained to preserve the essence that makes FILTER special.
