Egalia

About Egalia

Egalia is the leisure hangout for people who are, or think they might be, LGBTQ+. LGBTQ stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer. The plus sign (+) stands for much more, such as asexual, pansexual, various non-binary identities and other sexualities. Egalia is your place to ask all questions about LGBTQ, or not to ask questions about it. Here, LGBTQ+ is the norm and you never have to feel questioned.

You can come here from the age of 13 until the day you turn 20. We are open Mondays and Thursdays from 16-20. Sometimes we are closed, for example during certain holidays. We inform you about this beforehand on Egalia's website and our Instagram account: egalia_rfsl. Every evening we have a gathering, an activity and coffee. Everything is always free at Egalia, the only thing you need to bring is yourself.

Why Egalia?

There are clear rules in schools, for example, about what you can and cannot do. If you don't fit into the requirements of being a guy or a girl in the expected ways, or who you should fall in love with, it can sometimes feel tough and lonely. We think it's important for everyone to know that you're not the loneliest person in the world, and that's why we've set up a place where we can meet. At Egalia, we are the ones who set the rules, here everyone can be just as they are.

What happens at Egalia?

Egalia works much like a normal leisure center. There are always at least three leaders on site to take care of you if you are new. There are always fun things happening at Egalia. Thousands of crafts, author visits, theme nights, theater, movie night and other fun events. And a lot of chatting with new people of course. There's almost always someone new every time - so come along too!

It's completely free to hang out at Egalia and you don't need to be a member or anything like that. You also get some coffee every time.
