Leeds First Friday is the UK's largest trans+ social. We've been running monthly since 2007, which, in LGBTQ+ event terms, makes us practically ancient.
We welcome thousands of trans people each year. Some have been coming for many years. Some are walking through a door like this for the very first time. People travel from Brighton, London, Glasgow, occasionally from the US or Europe. A real, public space to be yourself, with people who get it.
We put work into making sure newcomers aren't left to figure it out alone, with support before the event and introductions on the night. Run by a team of volunteers, in partnership with local safety organisations, to make this what we believe is one of the safest places to be out as yourself for the first time.
Head to our Discord and Facebook groups to stay up to date and meet people attending in advance.
