WHO
Unity Fest was created back in 2020 to bring a unique and memorable, annual weekend festival to lesbian, bi, and transgender women.
The festival is now in its 5th year and offers a wide variety of entertainment, live music acts, exciting activities and fun workshops plus lots more!
WHAT
Unity Fest aims to create a safe space for lesbian, bi, and transgender women, to unite and encourage social interaction, friendship, and acceptance of one another.
Sometimes for various reasons people can't feel or be themselves in their everyday life. Some people even feel very isolated within the area/community in which they live. Whilst at Unity Fest, we want to help you feel a sense of freedom and enable you to be your truly fablous self, in the company of like minded women.
We aim to create the dynamics of a large scale festival, without losing the sentiment of intimacy and inclusion.
Please note Unity Fest is an 18+ only festival.
WHY
Lots of us have been there... At festivals, events and concerts with such large crowds of people and we have felt very alone or anxious... Unity Fest aims to be different to this!
Our Festival Director has many years of experience organising events and working at festivals, with solos, couples and groups. Along with her 'Dream Team' crew, she will endeavour to do her very best to make everyone feel very welcome and feel a big part of the Unity Fest Family.
So whether you're a shy single, an extrovert solo, or a couple, we want to welcome you with open arms and aim to make you feel at home from the moment you arrive.
A NOTE FROM OUR FESTIVAL DIRECTOR
"Hello and welcome to Unity Fest! I am so proud to be able to host this unique annual celebration, for our community to enjoy.
Year upon year Unity Fest continues to grow and get even better and this has prompted a move from Cumbria, to our new home at Newark. A more central location with much better facilities and infrastructure, I aim to continue to build the foundations to make Unity Fest, the best festival it can possibly be.
Festivals have a special set of characteristics that make them attractive to people and Unity Fest is no different. With live music and entertainment, through workshops and sport we hope to encourage a sense of belonging that creates lasting memories for our community and something very special which we can all enjoy and look forward to each year.
2025 will be Unity Fest’s fifth birthday. Already we have some great plans and surprises underway, for a very exciting celebration party, so watch this space!
