EDGE Providence

Massachusetts Youth Pride is a one day annual festival that celebrates the year-round commitment of diversity of youth within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. This year’s festival featured live entertainment and vendors for all ages.

There are rain dances and sun dances and dances of sheer exultation - and every kind of dance was on display for Divers/Cité’s 20th birthday party in Vieux Montreal.

One of the world’s largest Pride celebrations with an estimated attendance of 1.2 million people, Toronto Pride’s ten-day Pride Week includes a three-day street festival, with nearly 300 entertainers performing on seven stages, as well as the Parade.

Prism Festival’s Bootcamp featured DJs Hector Fonseca and Tony Moran and a performance by Erika Jayne as the military-themed event kicked off the final Friday night of Toronto Pride, one of the world’s largest Pride celebrations.

Once the Pride Parade was over a long line formed to get into Mirabar’s Block Party - and with a capacity crowd and the Mirabar shot boys on hand, the event rocked. Check out the pics!

The Stable hosted it’s first Pride Festival Block Party. They teamed with Viva Mexico and Local 121 to provide a wide selection of food. Kitty Litter and friends had a big show for the huge crowd.

After marching in the Pride Parade, the Northeast Leather Family and other leather and bear friends went to the Providence Eagle’s Block Party - EDGE was on the scene!

After the Pride Festival was over RI Pride’s Illuminated Night Parade returned to its traditional route through downtown Providence. A record crowd turned out on a beautiful night to cheer the marchers.

Dark Lady and Alley Cat not only took over the street, they took over the parking lots next door, resulting in the largest party of the weekend! Sabrina Blaze hosted a two hour show while Dark Lady had their dancers keeping things hopping all night long.

Are there any words more beautiful than truffle mac-n-cheese? If, for some silly reason (such as a diet), you missed this year’s Garden Party, here are the photos from the largest LGBT food festival in the States.
