Ladyfest Leeds 2007 happened 10-15 April 2007, England.

"Ladyfest is a not-for-profit, volunteer-led arts and music festival which aims to create a space for female artists and musicians to be seen and heard in an environment which is inclusive, individual and fun.

Ladyfest Exeter happened 25-27 April 2003 in Devon, England and 16-18 April 2004.

"Ladyfest Leicester’s core objective is to promote and celebrate the creativity of women while raising money for good causes. Most music and arts festivals are still male dominated; Ladyfest Leicester will help restore the balance and provide a safe and comfortable environment for artists to perform and exhibit their work. Ladyfest Leicester will be held over a weekend in October with most of the events happening under one roof and all happening simultaneously; and we will be showcasing music, literature, art and workshops over the weekend.

Olympia, WA in the United States saw the inagural Ladyfest launched 1-6 August 2000. Put together by a team of women, some who were involved in Riot Grrrl, this festival sought to create more lady-friendly spaces for women and transgender folks in counter-cultures and activism. The organizing team explicitly told the crowd to go home and organize something in their own towns; hence Ladyfest as an international phenomena was born!
