THEYFRIEND is San Francisco’s annual festival celebrating nonbinary arts, culture, community, and creativity.
This year, we’re bringing together incredible nonbinary performers - and we’re inviting you to join the show. Across four days of performances, parties, workshops, and participatory experiences, THEYFRIEND creates space for people of all genders to play, experiment, connect, and shine. Come celebrate nonbinary artistry, embrace radical joy, and show us what you’ve got.
