We invite you all to the 16th annual Sparkle Weekend!

​

Initially a small gathering organised by the local trans community, our event has grown over the last fifteen years into the world's largest free-to-attend celebration of gender diversity. The 2019 Sparkle Weekend saw over 22,000 trans, non-binary/genderfluid

and intersex people, their families, friends, and allies visit the Sparkle in the Park event.

 

We have some fantastic plans for two days of live stage entertainment and dancing, advice and support from community groups and trusted partner charities. On top of this we have our Family Zone (for younger trans and gender variant people, and their families and carers), and the opportunity to meet representatives of the Sparkle Weekend’s corporate partners to discuss the issues affecting this richly diverse, yet frequently marginalised community.

 

The Sparkle Weekend is an accessible, inclusive, and free-to-attend event which welcomes everyone, especially those with disabilities, or from BAME communities.

​

Our Trustees and Key Volunteers are busy planning the Sparkle Weekend!

​

Sparkle is proud to say we have reviewed over 285 feedback forms in order to plan the 2020 event effectively and by listening to your views, we call it 'you said we did' and you can read our suggestions and changes here.
 

We will be releasing various details over the coming weeks and months, as our planing reaches the final stages you will be the first to know whats happening! So keep an eye on this page for all the Gossip and Latest News!
