The Queer Spirit team

Connected, Accepted, Belonging

Life changing. I made friends for life. Most amazing event of my life.

Filled with absolute joy, love and spirit

A thriving experience, an eloquent education

It changed my life

I have never felt such a strong sense of belonging as I did here

Utterly 100% accepted and celebrated for who I am

A beautiful and unique happening

The energy from start to finish was beautifully palpable and entrancing

Thank you all so much for an incredible gathering of queer magic

Heart-opening, expansive...so nice to be in fields with fellow queers!

A real feel of harmony and celebration

The ceremonies were all brilliant and they felt very special

A spirited lovefest like no other

Loved how intimate it was

Queer Spirit Festival is 17 - 21 August 2023

I believe the energies and sounds that music and lighting bring are an incredibly healing and magical thing that really shine out at festivals and really enjoy helping to bring that magic to Queer Spirit.
