📣🌈 Calling all Queer, Quirky and Quinky; BrumsQueerMarket is back. #BQM
After an incredible launch, we return to the Village Inn and Nightingale Club for our second gathering. BQM is a quarterly market built to celebrate, support and connect Birmingham’s LGBTQIA+ and alternative communities, and we are just getting started.
Plans have shifted slightly, and we’ll now be gathering on Saturday 16th May. Same energy, same community, just a new date and the perfect pre-Pride warm-up.
As you step inside, you’ll land in our open ground floor space, where the market begins. Here you’ll find a mix of traders alongside our Connection Zone, woven into the heart of the room. This space is designed for slowing down, striking up conversation, and finding your people. Settle into booth seating, grab a drink from the bar, and explore:
Local LGBTQIA+ history
Services and support information
Friendship bracelet crafting
Sexual health resources provided by Birmingham LGBT
You’ll also find moments of connection happening live within this space, including Drag Queen Storytime, creating room for shared stories, expression, and community in its most joyful form.
Step outside into the beer garden for a breather, where our food vendors will be serving throughout the day.
From there, follow the flow upstairs into our dedicated trader floors, where Liberation Avenue comes into full effect. You’ll find a packed marketplace of independent makers and creatives, accessible by both lift and stairs. Expect to discover:
Alternative fashion
LGBTQIA+ literature and art
Leather craftsmanship
Glasswork and decor
Handmade jewellery
Gothic pieces and curiosities
Throughout the day, moments of community will unfold around you. The Radical Celebrant will be present, holding space for conversation around their work as well as offering a live naming ceremony. You’re invited to witness, reflect, or simply exist alongside it.
