Host Jeff Freedman is joined by the iconic Dena Stanley and Dalen Michael, co-organizers of Pittsburgh Pride, to spill all the glittery details on this year’s Pride events lineup. From the Bigger Gayer Picnic to the return of the Pride Prom, the electric Kiki Ball, the two-day festival in Allegheny Commons Park West, and of course the Pittsburgh Pride March and Parade, it’s a stacked celebration like no other.
They’re breaking down:
- The full weekend schedule
- How to join the Kiki Ballroom scene
- Prom Court, performances, and who’s spinning the tracks
- Accessibility upgrades, community village additions, and free shuttles
- Headliners like David Archuleta and Lil’ Mo

PLUS: Why now is the time to show up, show out, and take up space in the face of rising anti-LGBTQ+ attacks.
