FANNY RIOT
YOU MIGHT SEE US AT FESTIVALS, IN THE STREETS, IN PUBS, ONLINE (ALTHOUGH NOT SO MUCH NOW WE CAN MINGLE AGAIN). THIS IS WHAT WE'RE UP TO.
GRRLZ NIGHT IN
Grrlz Night In is a pay-as-you-feel initiative from Fanny Riot to provide a space for self identifying women, non binary and queer folks to gather once a month, unwind and socialize in the soothing Dream Machine space. Our activity changes each month, with our running theme being creativity, expression, rest & relaxation. We invite you to come and share this space with us!
Next date? Sunday 26th November.
With the incredible Glasgow based musician 🎶 Pippa Blundell Pippa will give a workshop in songwriting. You will get to enjoy also a hearty vegan meal & bedtime stories to help you wind down for a peaceful slumber.
17:00 - 21:00

ACTIVE BYSTANDER WORKSHOP
An engaging workshop on bystander intervention. This is about skill sharing and conversation. We've learned a lot from Good Night Out Campaign. Check out their resources and training opportunities offered all year round.
FRIENDLY FESTIVALS SCOTLAND
A collaborative campaign to get all Scottish festivals to display zero tolerance anti sexual violence policies on their websites! As a commitment to the safety of people attending. Policies like this are a first step to addressing the fact that 1 in 5 women* will experience sexual assault or harassment at a music festival.
