It is time for us - so grab your glitter for — Smoqua time of the year is here! 😊
The ninth edition of the international festival of queer and feminist culture Smoqua will take place from October 9 to 11, 2025at vibrant locations across Rijeka.
The overall theme Togetherness puts focus on queer joy and caring for ourselves and each other in times of crisis, uncertainty, and attacks on human rights. On 20+ events with 50+ queer artists, activists, collectives, and organisations from entire Croatia and beyond, we're celebrating queer and feminist culture, our achievements, struggles — and one another. Expect workshops, exhibitions, performances, shows, quizzes, games, the magical Queer-UP! Party!, and some surprise gifts.
This year LORI marks 25 years, and our wish is to celebrate that great anniversary at Smoqua with our dear ones, with people who support our work and values that we stand for many years, and finally, with our community for whom and with whom we work - without you we would not survive all this time. 💖🌈
Entire programme lands soon and until then #savethedates 😊
