Bite Back! does Halloween

Bite Back! returns to The Attic on Saturday 17 October with a Halloween special, running from 12:00 to 23:00. It's an all-day programme of drag, music and stalls, and the venue is wheelchair accessible.

Bite Back! Events is a series run for and by trans and disabled people, programmed by trans and non-binary, disabled and neurodiverse artists. The organisers encourage attendees to stim freely and to wear whatever they like — costumes are encouraged — and to party alongside the artists. This Halloween edition fills the whole day, with drag and music taking over the space.

The line-up brings together Without, Andrew Lavender, Gray, Dead Animals, Eve Stein, Major Dong, Mhad Mheezie, Elena Black and Xena Morph. The series is made possible with funding from the PRS Foundation and their Early Career Promoter Fund, and The Attic itself is a multi-disciplinary events and arts space here in Leeds.

Tickets range from free to £15 for earlybird, and there's a free NOTALOF (no one turned away for lack of funds) ticket for those who wouldn't otherwise be able to attend. If you're only coming for part of the day, there's drag-only entry from 15:00 to 18:30 for £5, and music-only entry from 18:00 to 22:30 for £5 as a donation. The whole thing runs from 12:00 to 23:00 at The Attic, 3 Sheaf Street, LS10 1HD.
