The 2025 Fresh Meat Festival, set for July in San Francisco, is a powerful response to the escalating political hostility against transgender and queer individuals. Celebrating its 24th year, the festival serves as a sanctuary for queer joy and artistic expression through a diverse lineup that includes dance, comedy, storytelling, and music. With over 900 anti-trans bills introduced across the U.S., the festival stands firm in its mission to uplift and celebrate queer and trans identities, featuring prominent artists and new commissioned works designed to challenge and inspire.
There are numerous narratives projected throughout the media about what resistance and celebration can be and what they look like, Still, this festival is laying the groundwork for a transformative shift in queer art.
The Fresh Meat Festival is not just an event; it's also a sanctuary for queer and trans joy, a stage for experimentation, and a ritual of survival through performance.
