SUMMARY:Reclaiming the Body: Queer Spirituality & Embodied Wellbeing
DESCRIPTION:Reclaiming the Body: Queer Spirituality & Embodied Wellbeing \nMany people across the LGBTQIA+ community have experienced the body as a site of regulation\, shame\, or disconnection. This workshop offers a space to question those inherited narratives and reconnect with the body on our own terms. \nTogether\, we’ll explore how spirituality and wellbeing can support presence\, sovereignty\, and belonging — not as tools for self-improvement\, but as personal and collective practices that help us feel safer\, more connected\, and more present in our bodies. \nThe gathering will combine a short talk with a gentle\, guided embodied practice designed to support grounding\, integration\, and a deeper sense of being at home in yourself. \n  \nAttendance is limited to 25 people\, please register with your Name and Phone Number by emailing Wellness Nomadz at wellnessnomadz@transcendya.com

SUMMARY:Everybody's Talking About Jamie
DESCRIPTION:The glittery\, high energy\, pop musical comes to Australasia for the first time in this special concert presentation. \nJamie New is 16 and lives on a council estate in Sheffield. Jamie doesn’t quite fit in. Jamie is terrified about the future. Jamie is going to be a sensation. \nSupported by his brilliant\, loving mum and surrounded by his friends\, Jamie overcomes prejudice\, beats the bullies\, and steps out of the darkness into the spotlight. \nSixteen: the edge of possibility. Time to make your dreams come true. \nUsing members of the LGBTQIA+ community as the performers\, this one night only event is the true spirit of community and builds on our success of The Laramie Project in 2025.

SUMMARY:Sleaze Night - Pride Edition (Strictly R18)
DESCRIPTION:Sleaze Party is the big one — the wild\, filthy\, full-throttle Menfriends classic. It’s huge\, it goes off\, and honestly… if you don’t get lucky at Sleaze\, you’re probably not trying. \nIt hits every first Saturday of the month from 7pm–3am\, and the crowd skews younger and gets busy early\, so don’t stroll in at 1am expecting a warm-up. By then\, the place is already heaving. \nExpect hot guys everywhere in Nude\, Fetish\, or Jocks\, bodies moving\, energy high\, and the whole venue buzzing. Our DJ keeps the place pumping all night\, adding that extra layer of heat that makes Sleaze famous. \nPlus there are free goodies and Lucky Locker Draws\, so you’ll want to be in the mix from the start. \nSometimes you’ve just got to let go and dive in. Sleaze is that night at Menfriends — so get down\, get dirty\, and get here.

SUMMARY:The Gigantic Gay Late Night Game Show
DESCRIPTION:We are going to be honest here\, we have NO IDEA what this is going to end up being… \nWe are locking our Festival creator in a room with some pretty talented people to make it\, but we guarantee the following: chaos\, carnage\, guests stars\, fierce entertainment\, questions\, queerness and a battle for the ages where at this stage\, even we don’t know how we are going to split the teams. \nWe are slapping an R18 rating on this event because with how the world is going\, we just don’t know what the content might be and yea\, the audience participation is going to be relentless. \nGood luck and don’t f*ck it up!
