Player One :: BOS Brings Circuit Power to OURFest

Executive Director of PhillyGayCalendar

Philadelphia is about to hit GOD MODE. On October 11, 2025, the city’s premier LGBTQ+ nightlife nonprofit, BOS Philly, will unleash its most electrifying production yet: Player One. Set inside the opulent, bi-level nightlife club NOTO, this event promises a hyper-charged fusion of international beats, immersive visuals, and a purpose-driven party atmosphere—all in celebration of OurFest and the thriving queer community of Philly.

THE BEAT BOSSES: DJ GSP & J WARREN

Two of the global circuit scene’s heaviest hitters are headlining the decks, bringing unmatched energy and legendary sound to the dancefloor.

DJ GSP—also known as George Spiliopoulos—is a Greek-born, London-based powerhouse whose name is synonymous with iconic European nightlife. As a longtime resident at Mykonos’ famed XLSIOR Festival and a veteran of massive dance events from Shanghai to São Paulo, GSP is celebrated for his signature blend of tech, tribal, and progressive house layered with soaring, soulful vocals. His globally ranked podcast series and catalog of exclusive mashups have made him a staple in both the European and North American circuits. As co-owner of Queen House Music, GSP isn’t just spinning tracks—he’s shaping the sound of queer nightlife.

Opening the night is none other than DJ J Warren, a Boston-born, Atlanta-based circuit favorite known for his explosive vocal-driven big-room sound. Fusing influences from Brazilian circuit parties with progressive and electro house elements, J Warren has been a fixture at major Pride events, festival stages, and afterhours gatherings around the world. His live sets are high-octane journeys, filled with custom edits, remixes, and reimagined queer anthems. Whether closing down a mainstage or launching the night, J Warren always delivers dancefloor euphoria.

NOTO: THE VENUE LEVELS UP

Hosting this spectacular is NOTO Philadelphia (short for “Not Of The Ordinary”), a sleek and state-of-the-art venue in Center City. Opened in 2016, NOTO was designed to bring the glitz and grandeur of Las Vegas and LA nightlife to the heart of Philly. With a 1,000-person capacity, luxury finishes, VIP balconies, and mind-blowing sound and lighting production, NOTO is more than just a club—it’s a nightlife experience. Perfect for a party that promises to be anything but ordinary.

THEME & VIP EXPERIENCE: WELCOME TO GOD MODE

BOS Philly isn’t just throwing a party—they’re building an interactive, fully immersive world. The “Player One” theme transforms NOTO into a gamer-inspired fantasyland where every guest is a player leveling up their nightlife journey. From exclusive merch drops to themed swag, every detail has been designed to thrill.

VIP ticket holders will enjoy skip-the-line access, private bathrooms, an exclusive bar, clothing check, and prime views from the mezzanine. For those ready to unlock GOD MODE, the event offers stage-level VIP booths, botyle service, and dedicated servers, placing you right in the heart of the action with full-spectrum service.

All VIP guests will also receive the exclusive BOS Philly ‘Let’s Play’ fan, and LUX and GOD MODE players will walk away with a limited-edition BOS Philly Belt Bag—a statement piece on and off the dancefloor.

MORE THAN A PARTY: BOS PHILLY’S CHARITABLE MISSION

At the heart of all this high-energy spectacle is purpose. BOS Philly is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit that uses nightlife to fuel progress. Proceeds from this and other BOS events support vital local LGBTQ+ organizations like the William Way LGBT Community Center and Morris Home, which provide critical services to queer and trans individuals across the region.

Since its early days producing the “Boys of Summer” parties, BOS Philly has grown into the city’s most dynamic LGBTQ+ events organization, seamlessly blending epic entertainment with community impact. Every ticket purchased is a contribution to Philly’s queer future.

WHY THIS MATTERS

In a time when LGBTQ+ communities face rising challenges and renewed political attacks, events like Player One do more than provide escape—they provide affirmation. They create spaces where queer joy isn’t just celebrated—it’s weaponized. Where sound, light, and sweat turn into solidarity.

This OurFest, BOS Philly is delivering more than just music and spectacle. They’re delivering connection, pride, and power. So grab your fan, strap on your belt bag, and get ready to press start.

Level Up. Game On. We’ll see you on the dancefloor.
