The organizers of the first Århus Queer Festival have announced that the festival that was to take place from June 6-8, is cancelled.

The cancellation is due to problems with Huset where the festival was to take place, and the organizers have unfortunately not been able to find another venue. But they will probably and hopefully try to organize the festival another place another time.

But remember that there will be held two other queer festivals in Denmark this summer: July 21-27 in Copenhagen and August 4-10 in Aalborg.

Even though Queeruption in Rome is cancelled, the summer is full of queer events. Here are some of them:
