It’s a day to learn about the history of the Bi+ community, celebrate its vibrancy and diversity, and uplift the voices and experiences of people who identify with bisexuality or any of the many identities under the Bi+ umbrella.

Let’s keep building visibility, challenging biphobia and bi-erasure, and celebrating the many ways people experience and express attraction and identity. 💗💜💙

💜 Thank you to everyone who joined us for Take Back the Night 2026!

This year’s event was held in partnership with Child and Youth Mental Health at Dufferin Child and Family Services and Headwaters Health Care Centre—two valued agencies we have worked alongside for more than 20 years to support survivors of sexual violence.

It was a powerful evening of solidarity, support, and strength as we came together to raise awareness and stand against sexual and gender-based violence.

A heartfelt thank you to our guest speakers for sharing messages of support and hope, to the Uku-Ladies for an amazing performance and to 101.5 IndieFM Orangeville and Tim Hortons Shelburne for supporting this important event.

Together, we uplift survivors. Together, we take a stand. 💪💜
