Fruit Loop is excited to be kicking off Edmonton’s Pride month and bring you some incredible 2SLGBTQ+ programming this June in support of our friends at Rainbow Refuge!!!
We’re partnering with our besties at the Grindstone Theatre from June 2-4 for a Pride kick-off weekend of epic proportions. Pride activities will be returning to Old Strathcona in west Ritchie AKA the garage district as we host a series of outdoor live performances, drag shows, dancers, photo booths, community booths, workshops, food trucks, beer gardens and late night dance parties to kick off Pride month here in Edmonton.
Many thanks to our Presenting Sponsor TD with outstanding support from Sea Change Brewing, the Old Strathcona Business Association, the Community-Based Research Centre, Edmonton Unlimited, Freddie, and Pattison Advertising!
