Share

It’s time to show off that fabulous Pride outfit and celebrate love and diversity!

If you find yourself up-island, Hotel Zed Tofino will be hosting their Pride celebration on both Saturday, June 14th and Sunday, June 15th—including an epic parade and numerous must-see drag performances. 

The Pride March parade will take place on Saturday, starting at 3 p.m., which will be followed by the Pride Party at Hotel Zed at 3:30 p.m., featuring local vendors, live music and family-friendly activities.

The Pride March will start and end at Hotel Zed—check out the route below:

Then, prepare your voices for cheering and bring your best energy, as the Drag Show will commence at 5:30 p.m., presenting Woofie and Eddi Licious!

Sunday will bring Pride attendees lovely queens and kings, Vivian Vanderpuss, Woofie and Eddi Licious for the Drag Après Surf at 3 p.m.

Reservations for the Drag Après Surf are highly recommended, as their other drag event (Drag Brunch) sold out very quickly!
