OUR VENUE IN
STOKE-ON-TRENT
Big cities always get the best stuff, we say fuck that.
Come have a bloody lovely time in Stoke, in our stunning Victorian hall. Where the Beatles once played in 1963.
Our founder spent her childhood not quite able to do the splits on Stoke-on-Trent stages. A city brimming with heritage, humility and humour, Kirsty wanted to create a conference within her home that gave her so much. An event focused on diversity, accessibility and community, Stoke-on-Trent is the perfect home to create a space to defy the ideals of where a conference should be.
LOOK, IF IT’S GOOD ENOUGH FOR RINGO, IT’S GOOD ENOUGH FOR US.
OUR INCLUSIVITY POLICY
We’ve ensured our venue has accessible and visible security and a support team to keep everyone feeling safe.
We want you to feel at home, so we’ll give you the option on entry to mark yourself as open to chat, or looking for quiet.
Our day is packed full of amazing speakers and talks, which we know can sometimes feel a lot, so we have dedicated quiet spaces for you to catch a breath.
