Detroit’s annual LGBTQ+ Pride festival is taking over Hart Plaza this weekend from June 8-9, and the event’s exciting entertainment lineup has just been announced.
This year’s Motor City Pride will feature performances across four stages, showcasing emerging LGBTQ+ musicians, drag queens, and other entertainers. Highlights include Detroit DJs Problematic Black Hottie and Raedy Lex, RuPaul’s Drag Race season 15 star JAX, rapper Daisha McBride, and R&B and pop singer Kyle Dion, among many others.
“Motor City Pride’s entertainment lineup is hitting all the right notes this year!” the festival’s entertainment director Darius Wheeler said in a news release. “Attendees are in for an unforgettable experience.”
Throughout the event, nearly 200 vendors will also offer a mix of art, goods, and information about local services and programs for the LGBTQ+ community. Additionally, Motor City Pride will provide a family area with games, coloring, and other activities for all ages.
The upcoming festival will also feature the annual Pride march, which begins at noon on Sunday and includes participation from over 100 Michigan companies and nonprofit organizations supporting equality.
"“Plan on getting to the festival early and staying late,” the press release says.
Alex Delavan, stage coordinator of Pride, adds, “This year, diversity and representation in talent take center stage!”
