Talks: Trans Vegas – Trans Spirit

Need your Trans Spirit lifting?

Come and join us in this free wellbeing event as part of the Trans Vegas festival. A unique opportunity to come together and recharge your trans spirit and meet fellow trans people.

The evening will include Yoga, singing, meditation and inspiring chats.

Trans Vegas is a Trans Creative Arts Festival featuring five days of exciting and diverse Trans-led events, where Trans people get to tell their own stories in beautiful venues across Manchester.

Organisers Trans Creative were launched onto the world in 2017. Since then, transgender politics have rarely been out of the news – often meaning one step forward, and two steps back for the trans community. We are seen, but not heard, we make headlines, but don’t get to write the copy. Trans Creative have been countering media negativity through our mission to “Tell our own stories” which seems more important now than ever.
