Unleashed LGBTQ, a business and entertainment conference is going in-person this 2023 after launching virtually last year!
From September 22 to 24, this event will gather brands and industry leaders from the business, entertainment, fashion, travel, and technology sectors, connecting them with LGBTQ+ professionals across the United States. The three-day conference will include a wide range of exhibits and activities including product introductions, campaigns, panels, workshops, screenings, and live performances.
Dubbed the “gay SXSW” by Pink Media’s Matt Skallerud, Unleashed LGBTQ will happen at Gilley’s Dallas, a 92,000-square-foot venue, and the Cedars Alamo Drafthouse Cinema.
The list of speakers and entertainers is yet to be released, and Unleashed LGBTQ is still accepting applications for its speakers, panelists, project premiers, and film screenings. The submission deadline is on August 5, 2023.
Last year, speakers included comedian Matteo Lane, NFT’s first out gay draftee Michael Sam, Grindr’s Andy Kraut, HBO “Legendary” star Gravity Balmain, and activist Celia Sandhya Daniels.
Unleashed LGBTQ is partnered with several big names in several industries, including AT&T, Dallas Voice, Equal Pride Media, Grindr, iHeart Media, Pink Media, The Trevor Project, and the World Gay Boxing Championships.
