Be/Here at Sparkle Weekend 2026

LGBTQIA+ mental health support, community connection and trans joy in Manchester

Be/Here is proud to be part of Sparkle Weekend 2026, the UK’s longest-running celebration of trans lives, taking place in Sackville Gardens, Manchester.

Sparkle is a beautiful weekend of visibility, community, joy and connection for trans, non-binary, gender-diverse people, friends, families, allies and the wider LGBTQIA+ community.

Be/Here will be there to offer a gentle, affirming space to connect, chat and find out more about LGBTQIA+ mental health support, therapy, free workshops and community groups.

Whether you are coming to Sparkle for the first time, returning to celebrate with community, or just looking for a softer space to pause during the weekend, come and say hello.
