Back with a vengeance

Five long years since we started this project, and what do we have to show for it? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Looks like misogyny is back on the menu, boys!

For those who are new here, Women Allergy Club exists to raise awareness of womanitis — made-up disease that causes sufferers bouts of anger, despair, and an inability to book a lineup with more than one woman. As you can see from this graph, this issue has only gotten worse over time:

a fake graph showing misogyny getting really bad!!

As is our sacred duty, we will continue to raise awareness of this issue and fight for the rights of men to book whoever the fuck they want a more inclusive music industry from the ground up!

Women Allergy Club is an anonymous collective of women and non-binary people working as DJs, promoters, booking agents, and other roles in the music industry. We keep our identities hidden to protect ourselves from the fragile egos we write about. Got something to say? Get in touch on Instagram, or on the form at the top of the page.

Jungle Syndicate Weekender 2026

Jungle Syndicate have been in the game for over fifteen years, and have taken an accordingly old-fashioned approach to booking women and non-binary artists: who bloody cares? Out of the 78 artists we could identify playing their upcoming weekender, we counted 11 acts who featured at least one woman: a measly 14%.

Having done some quick fag packet maths, we can indeed confirm that this is quite a bit lower than the number of women in the world at large, which experts indicate could be as high as half of all people on earth!

The jungle scene is notorious for its male-heavy lineups, and not enough women and gender minorities feel comfortable engaging in the scene as a result. Think that change should come from the top? Let Jungle Syndicate know! Think we’re chatting out of our arse? Our DMs are always open 😘

Creamfields North 2022

Long-time Women Allergy Club adversary Creamfields, undeterred by last year’s scathing Instagram post, return in 2022 with effectively the same lineup as last year.

While it’s important to note that this is only the initial teaser lineup and the rest of the bookings have yet to be announced, we believe there’s no smoke without fire, and no Creamfields without 7 out of every 8 artists being men!

As always, if anyone reading this wants to send legal threats, you can reach out to us at [title of this page]@protonmail.com! We look forward to hearing from you :)

Joshua Brooks

Same shit, different year – Women Allergy Club are back, bitches! We thought we’d kick things off with an end of year recap from Manchester’s Joshua Brooks, under new management since the pandemic.

Aforementioned new management have taken to their alphabetti spaghetti to book a wealth of arists for 2021, including LJ, LSB, DLR, and DRS. Brilliant!

Three letters that come to our mind when looking at their bookings are S, I, and X, since six is the number of women they’ve had play in an entire year of running a nightclub (minus six months of lockdown). There’s always 2022, eh guys?

Muzik Events

Tech house, the death rattle of civilised society, has never really been known for being the most inclusive of genres, but even so Muzik Events have really gone above and beyond. By our count, since 2016 they’ve booked three women, meaning that Solardo have played more than every woman combined.

That’s it. That’s the joke. Women Allergy Club are gonna take the rest of the week off and cry into our pillows as a tech house remix of Born Slippy echoes through our minds. Laters!

Made in Leeds Festival

Made in Leeds fest are trying their very best to draw ire from Women Allergy Club, not just by booking two women to thirteen men, but also by having one of those men be Tom Zanetti.

Hilariously, they’ve also managed to get a sponsorship deal from a vape company that can, no joke, give you 50% off a vape with the code MILF50. Presumaby that comes with flavour cartridges of Lynx Africa and MCAT?

Wireless Festival

Wireless have today announced their 2021 lineup, and fans are not happy. Some aren’t happy because Travis Scott’s not playing, others aren’t happy because they’ve somehow managed to book 5 women to 41 men!

Here at Women Allergy Club, we’re all in support of their shitty lineup. All that we ask is that they change their name to Womanless Festival instead!

Witcombe Festival

Whitcombe Festival (FKA Whitcombe Cider Festival) is back for another year, and has seemingly had to cut pandemic-induced costs by:

  1. Not booking any women headliners, and

  2. Designing their poster in Microsoft Word

Let’s hope they sell enough cider this year to sort things out for the next one!

Hospitality Open Air BBQ

Hospitality are back at it again, this time with a Brummy BBQ Bonanza! We’re not quite sure what it is with DnB promoters and BBQs, but it seems like this is gonna be a sausage party in more ways than one!
