Paradise monthly dance party takes over Oak Cliff bar Tiny Victories once a month with eclectic music and local creatives.
Launched by illustrator Jessi Pereira and DJ Sober in May 2021, Paradise is far from the cliquish events elsewhere in Dallas. It welcomes everyone with a love for the city and has become a hub for local creatives to be noticed.
At Paradise, people show up and show out. Locals dance to R&B, soul and house music, drinks in hand. Photographers flash their cameras and Polaroids and scan the room with retro camcorders. People who would otherwise never be in the same room chat it up.Paradise marked its second anniversary April 23 with a themed party called “A Journey Through Time.” It was inspired by the power of preservation, Pereira said, and the cultural history of Dallas.
The first Paradise party celebrated Pereira’s 25th birthday, her zine release and a return to nightlife after the introduction of COVID-19 vaccines. A big turnout generated $10,000 and inspired the creators to continue theDallas nightlife takes off with cumbia music Paradise has stretched beyond Dallas, hosting parties in Miami and other Texas cities. With a livestream run by DJ Junk Food, people across the world can connect and experience Paradise too.
