At a time when audiences are demanding more authentic stories, the Write Us In Summit brings together some of the industry's most compelling voices to explore the future of bi+ and polyamorous representation in film, television, music, and media.
Whether you're developing projects, building a creative career, shaping industry conversations, or simply looking to celebrate Bi+ Visibility Week with friends and community, the Write Us In Summit offers a unique opportunity to connect and be part of a growing movement for more authentic and inclusive storytelling.
The Write Us In Summit will be emceed by Rose Montoya, a proud bisexual, nonbinary trans Latina advocate, educator, and viral content creator. She has built a platform of 1M+ followers across verified platforms, and their work has been recognized with a spot on OUT Magazine’s OUT100, the LA Blade’s Readers’ Choice Awards Best Activist, and Spain’s Ambassador Award for Inclusion.
Come dance with Lucy & LaMer, who is the kind of artist who makes the world feel a little brighter...and a lot more bisexual. In 2025, Lucy earned her first GRAMMY® consideration for Best Pop Vocal Performance with her shimmering bi+ themed single “Palm Springs.”
And join us for a fireside chat with the inaugural 2026 Write Us In Awardee, who will be interviewed live on stage by the iconic Tracy E. Gilchrist, host of Holding Space with Tracy and former Editor in Chief of The Advocate. Tracy has interviewed everyone from Brandi Carlile to Cynthia Nixon to Janelle Monáe, and no one can forget her viral interview with Wicked's Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande.
Our 2026 Write Us In Awardee along with the rest of our lineup will be revealed throughout the summer. Get your tickets now, while they last!
