Girls Don't Cry Festival

The festival is organised by the association La Petite, which works for gender equality in the arts and culture, and by its media platform Girls Don’t Cry, which promotes the artistic creation of gender-minoritised people.

The Girls Don’t Cry Festival is not a break but a fault line, a temporary zone of re-enchantment, a queer glitch in the matrix. Every year we gather there as one rekindles a fire, as one enters a ceremony. We celebrate what overflows, what goes off the rails, what makes us vibrate. We dance, we cry, we build a more breathable world together.

For three days, bodies invent other uses, other rhythms, other connections. Sound becomes a weapon, a manifesto, a cry of joy. Elsewhere, things flicker, murmur, surprise. Gestures appear, materials come alive, voices rise. You will need to listen closely, open your eyes, and follow the clues.

With: THX4CRYING - GATAFIERA - SUKKUBE - VANDA FORTE - OONAGH HAINES - BRIZITOS - Louise Pétrouchka - LE KAIJU, plus encounters, performances, exhibitions and stalls!

See you at the recently opened Toulouse concert venue La Cabane on Friday 27 and Saturday 28 November, and at the Centre Culturel Bonnefoy on Sunday 29 November. Find the full programme on the festival's website.
