Termine/Dates

Dear fellow Queers, Queens, Quings and other beautiful creatures,

Have you ever felt like you're not queer enough? We feel that way often. Being queer can be complex in a world where social norms teach us to be ashamed and where we can't show our full selves. That's why we're creating a weekend together dedicated to exploration, celebration and transformation. We warmly invite you to join us on an emotional journey to re_discover and reaffirm your queer identity.

When society shifts to the right and times get tougher, it’s even more important to create spaces where we can relax, where it’s not only possible to barely exist but to thrive together. A braver space where we can reconnect with our bodies and where all our emotions are welcome. Where we can empower each other, take a deep breath, and return strengthened to our daily lives.

The core of the weekend will be a couple of rituals we experience in community. Rituals can be challenging for queer people, cause in Europe they mostly happen within cis-hetero-norms, christian traditions and in colonialistic manners: Marriages with their binary dress codes, Christmas dinners with that one conspiracy theorist relative, and family gatherings where we need to hide parts of our queer selves—these are usually not the events where we feel welcome. So let's create those spaces by ourselves.

A space centered around our queerness, the eco-systems within and around us and in appreciation for everyone we learned from. Rituals can provide a strong container to share joy, sadness, fear and anger in community, to get rid of shame and feel queer enough. You can bring whatever is alive in you right now. Whether you wanna let something go or embrace something new. Joy and insecurities around your transition, finding the courage to come out or just celebrate to be alive for another year. Bring your stories and experiences that shaped you to make this weekend an unforgettable time.

We encourage you to join our weekend if you:

• want to have a space to process your emotions

• want to spend a weekend with other lovely queers

• sometimes ask yourself whether you are queer enough

• want to explore the connections between nature and queerness

• have recently experienced something meaningful that you want to

  celebrate in community

Some of the highlights awaiting you:

We want to be fully present; therefore, we encourage participation with as few mind-altering substances as possible.

When? 13th - 15th of March 2026 - we're going to start together on Friday at 5 pm and finish together on Sunday at 2 pm.

Where? In a house close to Poznań, surrounded by floodplains of the Warta river and the magnificent Rogaliński Landscape Park. The program involves movement on grassy, sandy paths and potentially small slopes.

Who? This weekend is open for anyone in the broad queer spectrum. We know that it can sometimes be difficult to define yourself as 'queer' while you still figure out your identity. So if you're struggling with that and ask yourself whether you're 'queer enough' to join, we wanna let you know: You are welcome! <3 You don't have to prove your queerness to us or anyone. You can come with questions and insecurities, and curiosity.

Let us know about accessibility needs and allergies. We will do our best to accommodate them.
