This year, Eurovision carries on as usual - and while the UK stays in, Brighton knows better!
Despite its ongoing ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, Israel remains in the competition whilst Russia has been excluded since 2022 for its invasion of Ukraine. The double standard is clear. And we’re not the only ones calling it out: Iceland, Ireland, Norway, Spain, Slovenia, and the Netherlands have withdrawn from Eurovision this year in protest. So, we’re doing something different: Up Your Vision! is our joyful, defiant alternative.
Expect a raucous evening of live music and comedy chaos, with a fancy dress glam station, prizes, and a secret after party from the awesome Queer House Party DJ’s.
Our Host: Brighton’s own brilliant Jen Brister
Live Music & performances from:
Palestinian pop royalty Bashar Murad
Oceana
The Liberation Choir

We’re celebrating talent and showing that taking a stand doesn’t mean cancelling the fun - it means redefining it. It’s going to be loud, proud, and full of heart and hope - solidarity never sounded so good.
