QueerAF Podcast: Season 2, Episode 8 – We hear a lot about how gay bars are facing closures around the UK – but what about queer spaces? Well, they’re just getting started… – listen now
In this episode:
From York to Wales, queer people across the UK are setting up their own nights – free from mental health stigma, transphobia and often alcohol. Why? Because when something doesn’t exist for queers, queers make it happen.
Amy Ashenden investigates the cultural queer nightclub revolution, speaking to the queer pioneers creating inclusive spaces and rewriting what nightlife can look like for the next generation.
Featuring:
- Amy Ashenden – Reporter and producer
- Jamie Wareham – Journalist and broadcaster
