Marburg’s inaugral Mardi Gras-Burg Festival will be a family-friendly, festival-style event that includes physical, mental health, legal and disability support services for LGBTQIA+ people and their families, inclusive and fun activities for all ages and live entertainment and music. It is anticipated that the Mardi Gras-Burg Festival will positively promote broader community views and acceptance of LGBTQIA+ families and individuals living in the semi-rural community of the Ipswitch region.
The funding from the PFA Small Grant goes towards providing an event that is safe and inclusive for the whole community, especially LGBTQIA+ people.
