Upcoming events

Talk of the Town

15 Jul 2025 - 18 Nov 2025
The Edge

Talk of the Town is a queer open night where the personal, political and petty all collide — a space to share the too real, the too funny, the too tender, the too much. It's less tumbleweed open mic night vibe— it’s giving more gossip with your babs at the smoking area, plus a mic & a cute audience.

Meet the team

For almost 15 years, Shout has been platforming queer and LGBTQIA+ culture in Birmingham and the West Midlands- carving out space for vibrant, fun, and sometimes challenging art and culture. As we look to the future, we have shifted to a year-round-programme of activity to better meet our communities and provide a consistent place for people to find relevance and space!

News

We had promised an evening exploring the soft rituals, hard truths, and juicy in-betweens of queer intimacy. Love that unravels you, sex that sends you and magic you didn’t know you were conjuring. Maz, Chloe, Rosa, Rupinder, and Sym did not disappoint.
Hi, my name is Diana (she/they). I took part in the Disco Extravaganza Workshops from April to July 2025, in collaboration with Shout Festival and ACE Dance & Music.
