Queer Meet-Up
Kick Off the Festival
in Community
Time to meet new people
The Queer Meet-Up is an intentional space to pause, connect, and ground yourself in community as the festival unfolds.
Whether you’re here to make new friends, explore romance, or simply meet other beautiful queer humans, this is a space to deepen connection and step into the weekend already feeling held in community.
We know that even in a vibrant, high-energy festival, it can take a moment to find your people. This space is designed to make that easier—so you can move through the rest of the weekend seeing familiar faces, sharing smiles, and feeling a deeper sense of belonging.
HOSTED BY Pamé!

We are co-creating a space rooted in care, respect, & joy:
Connection Etiquette
Everyone has their own comfort level. Move with awareness and care.
1. Consent is Key
Come as you are. Celebrate others as they are. Respect
This is about positive, affirming experiences for everyone.
2. Respect Boundaries
Every interaction is based on mutual consent. Ask when unsure, and always honor a yes or a no.
3. Inclusive &
judgment-free:
🔥 Friends with Benefits
❤️ Open to Love
For those seeking playful, casual, and consensual connection.
✨ Platonic Magic
Choose Your Connection
For those looking to expand their circle and build genuine friendships.
For those open to romantic connection and meaningful chemistry.
A space to connect with others and expand your community.
