Accessibility & Diversity.
Here at PeakeFest, it’s of utmost importance to us that our business festival is as inclusive and diverse as possible. We want everyone to feel valued and safe, and pride ourselves on making the event as accessible as possible.
I attended PeakeFest on a whim and was initially nervous (as any trans person can be in these times) However as the conference continued and my nerves settled, things turned out pretty good. Gender neutral toilets weren’t an issue, everybody was friendly and really interested to talk about…anything! I also met so many faces I only seen in Zoom rooms and socialise with too. Overall I would recommend to anyone to attend…and I believe it will only get better.

Gathering attendee accessibility and inclusivity needs in advance to make sure everyone is properly supported.
Representation on stage matters. Our line up reflects diversity across gender identity, POC, disability, LGBTQ+ and class.
