PENGUIN PRIDE
Books, poetry, music and more.
Penguin Pride comes to Brighton for the first time ever this July with an awe-inspiring line-up of LGBTQ+ writers, poets, musicians and activists to celebrate the city’s incredible diversity and to shine a light on new voices in the community.
Hosted by award-winning poet and playwright Toby Campion, this multi-arts festival-style event will showcase published authors alongside local writers and performers in what promises to be a truly inspiring evening of queer talent. Names on the bill include award-winning poets Jay Bernard and Dizraeli, writer Matthew Todd and trans campaigner Fox Fisher to name but a few.
£1 per ticket sold will go towards the great work of The Albert Kennedy Trust, a national LGBTQ youth homelessness charity.
