Wynwood Pride Month is back this June and marking its fifth anniversary with a month-long celebration of LGBTQ+ diversity, inclusion and unity.
Supported in part by the Wynwood Business Improvement District (BID) and organized by the non-profit Wynwood Pride Inc, the neighborhood is marking the month that honors the 1969 Stonewall Riots that began the modern gay rights movement in the best way it knows how — with a fun range of parties and cultural events for all.
“Wynwood is a community that remains welcoming and diverse,” said Manny Gonzalez, executive director of the Wynwood BID. “We continue to be a hub for creativity and the best of what Miami is, and we’re excited to welcome visitors from around the world to experience our energy.”
To kick off the first weekend, there was a 21+ Rooftop VIP Pool Party at Arlo Wynwood Hotel on June 3 and Miss Toto’s drag extravaganza is scheduled for June 9 at FunDimension. Additional events scheduled throughout the month include lip sync battles, drag brunches, dance parties, fashion shows and art exhibits.
“Wynwood will be buzzing with excitement with what we think is the most fun and inclusive Pride celebrations in Miami,” said Liza Santana, publicist for the Wynwood Pride festival.
“For us the rainbow means just that — all colors, orientations, genders and more, in our hot Wynwood mix.”
While the complete schedule of events is still coming together, full information about Wynwood Pride Month can be found at www.wynwoodpride.com, and on social at @WynwoodPride.
