Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion

At ClimbOut, we firmly believe that outdoor climbing should be accessible to everyone. We want to help break down barriers and make it an inclusive and affordable experience. We are particularly sensitive to the unique challenges faced by individuals with intersecting identities within the queer community, who often encounter additional adversity.

ClimbOut is specifically designed with queer participants in mind, placing queer joy at the heart of our festival. Allies are very welcome, but we are clear that this event centres queer experience and is about creating a safe space to bring queer joy to climbing.
