Cheap Dirty Horse are a big rowdy queer trash folk-punk band from Nottingham. Blending acoustic and electric guitar with banjo, accordion, bass, drums, and sometimes mandolin, they write energetic, joyful protest music. They sing about trans rights, dead billionaires, and the importance of doing the things you love. They sing about grief, washing machines, and stealing shit. Angry, but always empowering. Sunny Side Down are a queer band who make indie-emo-pop for people who stop to pet cats on the street !! You can expect punchy basslines and journal-style lyrics that balance weighty melancholy with hopefulness ❤ Commoner 'Not sitting round and waiting for things to happen, commoner has had a busy first year on the scene. Hosting DIY shows all around Falmouth. Dropping two self recorded E.P's, four singles and, most recently, announcing his debut album (out 20th Sept.) His gobshite-fast-paced folk punk is slowly seeping out of the southwest to the rest of the country.’ We've kept some guest list spots available for those who cannot afford a ticket, please DM us on instagram or email us at

We all have clothes that have become worn out through love or that we do not wear anymore, because they have lost their appeal.

Why throw them away when you can learn to make beautiful heat press vinyl and embroidered patches to cover up the imperfections, make your clothes fun again and give them a new lease of life.

This event celebrates global queer history, desire and creativity by launching two poetry chapbooks: Hongwei Bao’s Dream of the Orchid Pavilion (Big White Shed, 2024) and Gregory Woods’ They Exchange Glances: Gay Modernist Poems in Translation (Hercules Editions, 2024). Informed by different cultural traditions and composed in distinct styles, these poems testify to the persistence of queer desire even under difficult circumstances and the richness of queer history and heritage around the world.

This workshop will explore the use of comics and cartoons as a way of communication. Exploring all forms of comic media from the Beano to Marvel and DC we will look at how art, text and design combine to create a form of visual communication. The workshop will be divided into segments of discussion and practice - no prior art skills required, and you do not have to share your work, this is an open and inclusive space to explore the power and dynamics of comics.
