Gay Day at Playland

Some Housekeeping:

1) Have you checked out this year’s Pride Guide yet? You can download a copy here and use it help plan your Pride week here in Vancouver.

2) I got to check out the IDS Preview on Inform’s roof in Gastown. Yes, I wanted to sit in the chair made of shoes. No, I wasn’t allowed to. If you are design enthusiast/furniture fetishist, you are going to want to check out the full show this fall. Click on the links. Check it out.

In other news: This Saturday is Gay Day at Playland and you know what that means: screaming drag queens! Eeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

This is probably one of my favourite pre-Pride events. The wooden rollercoaster is a Vancouver classic and this…

…is probably one of the funnest things you’re going to do this summer.

Wear red and you can play spot the homo!

And oh yeah: save $5 from regular admission and buy your tickets for $28.50 from the Pride Office, Little Sisters or at the Gate on the day.
