Vancouver Pride Week – Friday

Pride Weekend is finally here, Vancouver, so get out and do something about it, alright?

If you’re looking for something to do tonight:

1) Davie Street Dance Party

I’ve decided that this year’s theme should be more – more beer gardens, more music, more time inside instead of in line ups. I have a heart-on for Davie Street and am not afraid to show it ce soir.

2) Iron Rod

In Rod we Trust

3) Celebrities’ Pride Ball with DJ Manny Lehman & Big Roger Underwear Launch

Perfect stop for those who want some post-street party fun. You won’t have to travel far either because it’s on the same block.

Have fun tonight!
