Coming Up

time&money

Updated Saturday Morning

You have asked me to list upcoming transgender conventions.

So I compiled a list of the stateside conferences and conventions I am aware of that will occur during the next 12 months. If I missed anything, let me know.

By the way, by "conventions" I am referring to multi-day events that include a mix of educational and social events as opposed to one or two-day "conferences" that are more or less strictly educational.

  3. Andee --- I do not believe that there will be an IFGE conference this year. Last April, there was an announcement that there would be a conference on April 14-17, 2011, but I have seen no follow-up announcements.

  6. Anonymous --- The last UK conference I am aware of was the Barbara Ross Association Conference in September 2010 at at the University of East Anglia. There is no information regarding their next conference, but watch this space.

  7. It's not a "convention" but an event/vaction; Diva Las Vegas is April 3-8. It is a week of dining out, taking in shows, gathering with friends throughout the city. No cost to attend, just pay for any activity you wish to do (golf, high tea, shows, dancing). This year they are expecting around 200 attendees.

  8. Hi Stana

    Again not strictly a conference although there are all sorts of seminars going on, as well as daytime and evening bands/ acts/ pageants etc, the biggest TG event going on in the UK is SPARKLE in Manchester. http://www.sparkle.org.uk/

    I have been for 5 of the last 6 years and can highly recommend it as a great place to meet and have fun. Likely to have a 1,000 tgirls so you can't miss us.
