Freedom, Pride, Belonging

What does gay freedom mean to you?

Is it the ability to be fully seen? To live with courage, creativity, and pride? To build relationships on your own terms with people who understand the path you’ve walked?

At Gay Freedom Camp, we explore these questions through heartfelt conversation, creative expression, ritual and play!

This 5 day retreat is a celebration of healing, self-expression and the power of community — rooted in the spirit of Pride. It’s a space where you can show up as you are and be welcomed into a circle of men who honor your uniqueness, no matter your age, body, identity, background or experience.

Whether you’re new to retreats or have been on a lifelong journey of self-discovery, you belong here!

Gay Freedom Camp celebrates the full spectrum of who we are and invites you to come as you are, with an open heart.

Mid-Morning - Dive into workshops designed to inspire, empower, and connect—ranging from playful to profound.
Lunch - Gather around the table for a hearty, communal meal.

Dinner - Enjoy another world class meal together—connect & savor the company around you.
Evening - Come together for magical shared experiences: fire circles, a talent showcase, dance parties, and more.
Late Night - Unwind in your own way—cuddle on couches, raid the game closet, visit the sauna, gaze at the stars, or explore the play space.
