About

VFest is an intersectional feminist platform and multidisciplinary arts festival that creates space for underrepresented artists who celebrate the body, identity and sexuality. In close collaboration with artists, organizations, and audiences, we create artistic space to be free, safe and unapologetically yourself.

We focus on professional (performing) arts by: FLINTA artists, artists with physical disabilities, neurodivergent artists and creators from diverse cultural backgrounds and urgent stories to tell.

We started in 2022 and will celebrate our 5th anniversary this year! Join us for day and night full of activist art and shameless party. If you can’t join us, please check out the artists, their work deserves to be seen.
