A night of Fierté Canada Pride parties

Dance cards are full across the city as queers gear up for a night of socializing and live music.

Fierté Canada Pride’s National Kiki begins at 7pm at city hall and features performances by Kapri, Ashley Gauthier and Mr and Ms Capital Pride.

Following the Kiki dinner party is House of Sas’s (HOS) Spotlight Series, staged at the Rideau Curling Club.

“This is House of Sas’s first production since Cirque Bizarre,” explains HOS’s Sebastien Provost. “We took the winter off to get our planning going. We are really excited. Spring is in the air and there are a lot of new faces in town.”

Queer musicians Sandy Duperval and Stephan Grondin will appear at both events.

Visit the Kiki’s Facebook event page and the Spotlight Series’ page for full details.
