I had the most amazing time, so many good people around and so friendly as well. I hadnt been for a couple of years but so glad that i made it this time. The weather was brilliant but too close at times but lets not de cry it. I would like to personally thank all the organises, helpers, stall holders, performers and all the bar staff they all make it to be such a memorable event, Thank you Allison. |

Well, what can I say? Sparkle 2013 was my best Sparkle EVER!! Arrived Friday lunchtime to glorious sunshine - went to all my usual stopoff points.... Taurus, Velvet, Via. High point was rocking away in the DJ booth with Sheela Blige listening to all my favorite music with fellow rock fans at the Retro Bar. Saturday was amazing - only thing I would love to see change would be for the stage to be open longer and maybe even there on Sunday. Met so many friends (I must confess some girls who said hi I couldn't place the name - sorry my memory's going now I'm past 50) Lovely food in Via as always The ceremony on Sunday for the memorial garden was beautiful - spent a little time before it chatting to a few girls who'd got up early to be there - Angela, Jennifer, Jane and Mary. Had a lovely chat to Tony from Via..thanks for chatting hon...:) All in all an AMAZING Weekend..thanks to all the organisers |

What an amazing event that gives such opportunities to man whom have no other outlet to show their feminine sides. We stayed for four days and loved every single second of it. Great to meet many long time friends and also to make many new friendships too. Will definitely be coming next year and I really hope you can make the entertainment span the Saturday and Sunday as the main event was over far to quickly.! |

It's 3 years since my last Sparkle and I think it's just fantastic, awesome, fabulous.... it just gets better! It's Sunday evening and I arrived with the early birds on Thursday, I've had 4 days of fun and meeting TVchix friends and making somme lovely new friends. I'm now sooo washed out I am going to crash and sleep late in the morning. I just can't speak highly enough of Sparkle. The obviously hard working crew got it right, definitely! Congrats Sparkle crew and thanks from me and all of us girls and boys that you gave such a great weekend to. The bar venues on Canal St. and around should be thanked too for providing an efficient and friendly service. Even when it was packed I didn't have to stand in me killer heels too long to get a drink and meals in the various places were good and reasonably priced. There was plent of variety in the music at the various venues to suit everyone. The social atmosphere along the street in both day and night times was always great. People were friendly and it was easy to meet and get to know each other. Sitting chilling with a drink and watching the passing parade of fantastic outfits was a real entertainment. Some people obviously went to a lot of trouble. Sparkle in the Park went off very well and I was impressed with the Freaks Dance group and players in the "grand opening" The music climax and firework things and balloon release were a theatrical touch that made it like a mini olympic opening.... The weather was a bit over the top and lots of people were sweltering. Better than the rain at my last Sparkle though. I made the effort Saturday night and got tarted up in me vinyl and boots and all. In that temperature I must have lost heaps of weight. All worth it though and I was rather naughty and crashed on the bed when I got back. A suggestion..... If more "serious" clothing sellers could be attracted to the park I think the market side of it would attract an aweful lot of girls who have trouble at normal shopping. A win for everyone. Big THANKS to the Sparkle team. I hope you keep doing it. Kisses to all the friends new and pre-friended who made Sparkle so great for me. Commiserations to all you girls out there that didn't make it. You missed the event of the year. |

My first ever Sparkle. The whole atmosphere was wonderful and it was well organized. Looking forward to Sparkle 2014 and the 10 year anniversary.

Marks out of 10 as follows..... Atrium apartments.....9. Superb and highly recommended. Canal Street.... 5. Good atmosphere but still an underlying air of menace and homophobic comments flying around from passing car drivers. Still a lot of "straight" guys who come to ogle and comment on the trans people. Beggars and pools of sick later on are a nice touch. Napoleons......3. Worst toilets this side of a festival. Slimy "admirers" who still think its ok to feel the arse of people they don't know and god help us if ever there was a fire upstairs. Velvet....8 . Needed air con but nice food and great staff. Retro.....10. For me the best part of Sparkle 2013. Non judgmental people in a totally non threatening atmosphere and with the sexiest girls with some amazing makeup and tattoos. Oh and the music was awesome. Maybe it's because rock and metal fans are on the fringe that they are so cool with TGirls. In fact some of the guys wore more eyeliner than me! This club made my weekend. |
