Are you Curious about Different Ways to Embody Masculinity?

Join A Two Day Festival Reimagining Masculinity

21-22 November 2026 | Rushcutters Bay, Sydney

Today people question masculinity a lot, but how can we explore, play and reimagine it?

Are you curious about different ways to embody masculinity?

And what alternatives are there today to traditional masculinity - both for those who have been socialised as men and for those who have not?

Reimagining Masculinity is two days of workshops, performances and play spaces, exploring psychological, embodied and erotic facets of these questions. In addition to talks and discussions, you will have experiences, which do justice to the full spectrum of what is at stake in reimagining today what is called masculinity.

We welcome all genders and orientations to our playground!

Who is this festival for?

➤ For those curious about how to think and feel beyond traditional masculine role models.

➤ For those who are confused about being a man.

➤ For those who are parents of young men (cis, trans or non-binary).

➤For those who want to explore, play with and perform masculinity.

We’ll explore

➤ How to be vulnerable and at the same time be strong.

➤ How to partner with your body and your nervous system

➤How to grow your capacities to trust and manage conflict with others

➤ How to be attractive to others and express yourself beyond traditional masculine role models

➤How to be in a space of permission together with others with a reimagined idea of what masculinity is?

“How can we not ask masculinity to change when, within it, we have become so wounded?”
— Ocean Vuong
