International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia

IDAHO 2008

Wednesday, 14 May 2008

Come rain or shine this Saturday we need to make some noise. It’s the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia and Brighton’s booked its part in the fight against intolerance. Head towards the Seafront and the Volks Railway this weekend and you’ll be greeted by performances from the Rainbow Chorus, the City of Brighton Gay Men's Chorus, a minute's 'noise', speeches by local political and community groups and a candle lighting ceremony. There will also be a spectacular display of 77 visually stunning sky lanterns with each lantern representing a country where the LGBT communities still face prison or execution.

When the world often witnesses homophobia in silence this is our chance to make some noise.

International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia
Saturday 17th May
7pm-8.30pm
