Vanguard hosted an 18-and-up celebration for North America’s latest TV obsession Friday with a dance party that featured the “Heated Rivalry” soundtrack, LGBTQ+ pop anthems and nostalgic alt hits all night long.

The Arts District venue has a full slate of shows to see this month, including the March 14 return of My So Called Band. 

Any “Heated Rivalry” fans who missed the event won’t have to wait long for another. Cain’s Ballroom will host its own dance party Thursday.
