Host an
event
It could be a picnic, panel, club night, crafternoon or open mic. If it brings trans community together, it belongs in the program.
how to plan a trans month event
Organising your own Trans Month event doesn't require a tonne of experience. Here are some easy steps to follow to make your trans-centric event a success.
Trans Month is all about trans-centric events. We're a diverse community with diverse interests, so pick an activity that stands out.
Picnic, panel, workshop, club night, open mic, crafternoon. Lock in your format, venue and date.
Host your event on a free event listing platform like Humanitix, and make it simple for people to let you know they are coming along.
Do your best to keep things accessible. Step-free access, gender-neutral bathrooms, a quiet space and clear signage all help people feel welcomed and included.
Name a welcome/safety contact for the day, set simple ground rules for attendees, and share the exact address only with people who've RSVP'd.
COVID safety such as good ventilation and making masks available is a great way to care for our community.
Submit your event to us and we'll add it to the official program to help spread the word. Afterwards, thank everyone, ask for quick feedback, and only share photos people have agreed to.
The Affirmation Station
Our hub in Brunswick East is a great low-cost option for community groups running a Trans Month event.
