Queer Spirit

A 5-day festival celebrating the love, creativity and passion and spirit of the LGBTQ+ community.

Queer Spirit is more than a festival - It is a group that provides ways for LGBT+ people to explore spirituality, healing and personal development, and that celebrates the creative and spiritual gifts that the queer tribes bring to humanity. Queer Spirit is the synergy formed by bringing together many views, experiences, beliefs, philosophies and ways of being that have queerness and spirituality

at their core. It is a cauldron of queer vitality connecting the worlds, exploring energy, nature & love
