FRUITEA is an OTA Kiki function where members of the community walk and battle for Grand prizes. OTA stands for “open to all” meaning anyone can walk any category regardless of gender identity or expression, and none of our categories have an effect.
People will walk and get 10s from our judges before battling it out for the Grand Prize. Categories include Face, Vogue Femme, Runway, Old Way, Sex Siren, Best Outfit and more!
If you're planning on walking, do your research on the different categories beforehand. If you're coming to spectate and have fun, then bring your energy and vibe and get ready to be blown away!
Follow us on IG @bristolballroomcommunity and @fruitea_ota to learn more!
Please keep an awareness that this is a priority space for queer and trans/gender non-confirming Black and people of colour - respect the floor and the walkers.

The last time you heard The Big Moon was welcoming the release of their dazzling second album, Walking Like We Do, back in January 2020, when life was very different. That was a coming of age record, with bold songs for Saturday nights and sad songs for Sunday mornings. So much has changed and continues to change. And in this world of constant change, we yearn for something familiar. Thankfully, we can continue to rely on the unique, jubilant, unassailable bond that sews this brilliant London band together.
