RedFest
Scotland's new anti-capitalist festival, Red Fest is the largest left-wing gathering in Scotland and a three day political festival being held at Glasgow's QMU between November 8th - 10th.
About RedFest
It's a forum for the left to discuss a world on fire and strategy and tactics to change it.
This festival is for all who want to see more struggle and resistance, not less, under a Starmer government. After 14 years of Tory rule, we face a right-wing Labour government wanting to show the rich and the powerful the system is safe in their hands.
It is for all who don’t want to stand by while racism grows. From fascists in Europe through Trump in the US to the riots in Britain, the far-right are on the rise again - but we can stop them if we organise.
It is for all who won’t rest until Palestine is free. A year of mass international protest and resistance have isolated the racist state of Israel and its backers, but the genocide continues - threatening to spill over into a greater war in the region fuelled by imperialism.
It is for all who want to fight for real change and genuine liberation – for women, LGBT+ and non-binary people and all who are oppressed under the system.
And it is for all who, in a world of escalating war, runaway climate chaos, attacks on our hard-won rights are asking: is another world possible, before it’s too late?
