The WorldPride Music Festival is set to take place over two days across three stages, with singing, DJ sets and drag set to take centre stage – literally!
“WorldPride Music Festival is a moment the world will remember,” said Jake Resnicow, Executive Producer of the festival.
“With legendary artists and our global community coming together, we’re creating an electrifying celebration that unites, uplifts, and amplifies LGBTQ+ voices like never before.
“Hosting this festival in our nation’s capital makes it even more powerful — it’s not just a party, it’s a global movement.”
WorldPride runs for three-weeks from May-June and includes immersive experiences, a human rights conference and an array of political activism.
It coincides with the 50th anniversary of Pride in the capital, marking a point of political significance as anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric and legislation is put at the forefront by the current administration.
