Hi everyone. I wanna start off with a real deep gratitude for all the support and love TRANUARY has received over the last two years.
This message is to let you all know that we will not be returning in 2025.
Tranuary is a real labour of love for all who work to make it happen. For me personally it takes up half my year with funding applications and then the production work as well as scouting artists etc.
I've been operating at a loss the past two years and willingly, because creating the space is more important to me than making profit off the event. That was never the goal.
However I've just taken on a pretty loaded full time producer job 9-5 5/7 so I don't have capacity to invest my time or resources into running a Tranuary in 2025 or be at risk of serious debt and serious burn out.
This isn't necessarily the end of the festival, I'm hoping to be able to bring it back in the future but it can't feasibly happen in 2025.
Thanks to all the creative community board members who have supported the event and to all the artists staff and audience members.
