-What is Queer Spraoi?

Queer Spraoi is a project to engage queerness in Dublin on a new level. We organise events, such as gigs, film nights and workshops around the social centre Seomra Spraoi.

In an era where we're led to believe that queerness is a commercialised 'lifestyle choice' to be bought and sold, we want to establish a radical community that celebrates our diversity, our differences and brings us together. To have fun, learn from each other, and have hot makeouts behind our grandparents' tool sheds while wearing multicoloured Tutus and acting improperly towards the family silverware.

Out of the bedrooms! Into the streets!
