Despite a global pandemic restricting most large gatherings from taking place (pour one out for the Doggie Drag Contest in Cal Anderson), big things are still happening for Pride weekend this year. That’s because, in addition to virtual or otherwise public-health-conscious events happening in Seattle, Pride festival organizers from San Francisco to San Antonio to Dublin are also embracing the power of the internet. Read on for our guide to The Stranger‘s Pride events (like Gay Misérables), Seattle events (like the celebrity-packed Together For Pride and the IRL Capitol Hill Pride March and Taking B(l)ack Pride), and events from far-away places (like NYC Pride and Global Pride 2020 hosted by Todrick Hall). For more ideas, check out our roundup of Pride takeout & delivery specials (six-layer rainbow cake, anyone?) and our complete Pride calendar.
All events are online unless otherwise noted. Remember to wear a mask to all in-person events!
STRANGER EVENTS
FILM
Collide-O-Scope
The mind-melting video compilation extravaganza also known as Collide-O-Scope will stream obscure oddities from film, VHS, music videos, and other forms of media live on the internet. It’s usually held on Mondays, but it’ll make an exception this time to accommodate your Pride weekend wind-down.
