Lisbon’s Feminist Festival is an inclusive, intersectional, self-managed and non-profit festival. It’s first edition will take place in the month of March in 2018. This is a volunteer kind of project organized by a group of people who reclaim and proclaim feminism with very diverse experiences and paths.

You can build the Festival with us, submitting proposals for initiatives through this form: https://goo.gl/forms/GbGFHqDprxrQVIba2

Workshops, debates, concerts, performances, theater, cinema, exhibitions and any form of expression which has feminism and gender equality as an inspiration are welcome. We  will bring together a diverse and comprehensive program, representing  various feminism's, through different experiences, identities, bodies and territories. We hope that all participants will be able to relate themselves with the activities of the Festival and find tools and possibilities of intervention in a safe and open space. Hence, we invite everyone - individuals, groups, associations. Share your ideas and concerns, submit your artistic project, propose a space for discussion, join us in this revolution. We will continue to make  feminism a fight for all, equal opportunities, diversity and  self-determination. Dead line for submission is December 31 (New date is January 7!).

We are also looking for suitable venues to host the Festival's actions. If you happen to be the owner or know of any available venue, please contact us: [email protected]

Important info:

Lisbon’s Feminist Festival will happen every Friday, Saturday and Sunday, through March 2018. The festival last official day is March 25th before Easter holidays.

Activities time frame can vary - from an exhibition which lasts the whole month, a cinema cycle for a weekend or a half hour performance.

We do not create any limitations regarding this. We  will launch a crowdfunding campaign to raise funds, with which we  intend to cover the minimum expenses for carrying out the initiatives. 

Thus, it is essential to understand the costs that each activity entails and self-sustainability is a differential factor.

Any activity that incites violence, misogyny, racism, homophobia or trans-phobia will be excluded.
