QueerJoyFest Rebuilds Community After WIMINFEST

Twenty years after WIMINFEST ended, a new queer celebration is rising: QueerJoyFest, May 30th at the KiMO Theatre, reunites the LGBTQIA2S+ community with a joyful, inclusive vibe. Born from the spirit of the original festival — which gave Albuquerque’s lesbian community a safe haven for two decades — this fresh iteration welcomes all gender identities and expressions. Featuring familiar faces and new talent, including a comedian who once graced WIMINFEST, the event blends nostalgia with fresh energy. Organizers stress the power of in-person connection after years of disruption, offering ASL interpretation and open arms to allies. Come for the music, comedy, and community — leave feeling seen, supported, and united. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
