Lil Groove Thing Presents: The Backpack Session

Lil Groove Thing Presents: The Backpack Session

A family friendly daytime dance gathering where music, community, and giving back come together.

Join us for an afternoon of house music, movement, and connection where generations groove together in a relaxed, welcoming environment.

This session, we’re proud to partner with Rohi’s Liberation Station (Rohi's Readery) to support the incredible work they do for children and families in our community. A portion of every ticket sold will be donated to help further their mission, and we’ll also be hosting a Back to School Supply Drive. Please bring new, unopened school supplies to help local students start the school year with confidence.

Expect a club inspired atmosphere with room for tiny feet, curious hearts, and adults who still love a proper DJ set. This is not a children’s party. It’s a shared experience designed to feel fun, inclusive, and joy filled for the whole family.

Music will be provided by DJ Kino Raymond, spinning a thoughtfully curated set that blends soulful rhythms and feel good energy while remaining comfortable for younger ears.

In addition to dancing, there will be dedicated areas for light activities and moments of play throughout the event. While specific offerings may vary, our goal is to create space for creativity, movement, and rest, allowing families to flow in a way that feels right for them.

Come dance with us, support an incredible cause, and help send our community’s children back to school ready to thrive.
