Dawn Richard

Last June, with COVID ravaging the world, PRIDE events were largely canceled. In the past 12 months we have endured much, lost many, have seen a spate of attacks against the trans community on the right. While the world is beginning to open up now thanks to vaccinations, it is important to remember all that has been fought for and achieved the past 50+ years, and to allow us all to celebrate, just a little bit, while not forgetting that there is much still to be accomplished, for full equality for all. With this two-night Virtual PRIDE, DREAMSTAGE hopes to bring people together from across the globe, to cherish unity and community.

 
“I love Pride,” notes Big Freedia. “It’s important for us to celebrate who we are everyday, but the fact that each June we stop and honor the LGBTQ community is another example of how far we have come as a country! But until we are all safe from discrimination and violence, there will be a need to Pride!”
 
LP adds, “Very excited and honored to be playing DREAMSTAGE Pride celebration on June 26th!! Pride changes lives and reminds us of the importance of community.”
 

The two days of the Virtual PRIDE Celebration will re-air in full on Sunday, June 27[12:00pm-5pm EDT], with Saturday’s performances followed by Friday’s.
