India, 4 June 2024: This Pride Month the world’s most popular dating app, Tinder in collaboration with Gaysi Family, brings back the third edition of Queer Made Weekend, a two-day festival celebrating, supporting and amplifying businesses and products made, owned and/or run by India’s LGBTQIA+ community in Mumbai and Delhi. This year, QMW is back in Mumbai on the 8th of June at Jio World Drive and in Delhi on the 15th and 16th of June, 2024 at DLF Promenade. 

 

Queer Made Weekend, originally launched in July 2021, observed its first IRL edition in Delhi in 2022 which was a huge success. Making it even bigger, in 2023, Tinder expanded the festival to Delhi and Mumbai, with a footfall of 20k+. As a strong ally of the LGBTQIA+ community, Tinder’s vision is to help members create meaningful connections and a place where people can be their authentic selves. Queer Made is an extension of that vision; an avenue for everyone to show their support to queer entrepreneurs from across different spectrums of gender, sexuality, age and location, who will showcase their work and reach new and more audiences, supporting them to continue doing what they love. From fashion and art to merch, home decor, zines and the best of food and drinks - if you can think of it, you can probably find it at Queer Made Weekend! 

 

So Shop, Support and Show up. Tinder would like to host your queerly beloved selves at the event where you can witness over 30 LGBTQIA+ owned businesses from diverse categories such as Fashion, Art, Merch, Home Decor etc. and tune in to 10+ artists from the community
