"It's a testament to the team's organisation and philosophy that this felt like the most vibrant, free and fun edition yet—all thanks to the beautifully varied community of people onstage, behind the scenes and in the dance." Thank you Resident Advisor for the glowing review of Body Movements' first edition in Southwark Park, which took place in August.

About us
Body Movements launched in 2021 as the UK’s first queer and trans dance music festival. During this time we have claimed spaces that were not previously ours; from 14-venue takeovers in Hackney Wick, to a sold-out Printworks event, to our new home in Southwark Park, London. "A landmark occasion for queer self-expression" - Mixmag "One of the best festivals in London" - Crack "Fluidity felt like Body Movements' secret sauce. One-day festivals in London are a hard balance to strike, especially in a city where promoters are constantly fighting for space, time and audience attention. It's a testament to the team's organisation and philosophy that this felt like the most vibrant, free and fun edition yet—all thanks to the beautifully varied community of people onstage, behind the scenes and in the dance." - Resident Advisor So far Body Movements has presented six events, uniting over 25,000 creative minds and movers within the LGBTQI+ dance music scene in ways never before imaginable. We have received critical acclaim from the queer community and wider dance music industry alike. We have raised £35k+ for various LGBTQI+ charities and causes over the last 3 years. Body Movements brings the UK’s leading queer dance music collectives together, side by side with emerging and international artists, all of them sharing stages, dancers, energy and body movement. Body Movements catalyses unique musical collaborations, conversations and celebrates queer bodies in dance music.
