As the summer months roll in, cities and towns across Canada come alive with vibrant festivals and events to celebrate Pride Season. Spanning from June to September, Pride Season brings 2SLGBTQI+ communities and allies together to honour and uplift the resilience, talent, and contributions of 2SLGBTQI+ individuals and communities.
Music, as always, is the heart of many Pride festivities and this year is no exception. From beloved anthems of love and liberation to electrifying live performances, music creates an atmosphere of unity and joy that is a staple for Pride celebrations everywhere.
This year, Toronto, host to Canada’s largest Pride Festival, boasts an exciting lineup of performances fans can catch at various stages throughout the city. From Thursday, June 27 to Sunday, June 30, get ready to dance and celebrate with amazing performers including JUNO nominees and winners LU KALA, Begonia, Simone Denny of Love Inc., Dragonette, and Carole Pope of Rough Trade.
Be sure to check out the full Toronto Pride Festival lineup and stay up-to-date with Pride events happening from coast to coast all summer long!
