Tampa’s swanky new drag meets, well, drag, this weekend when Water Street hosts a lineup of queens as part of its Pride Celebration.

The early block of festivities (5:30 p.m.-7:30 p.m.) happens at the Via Corazon plaza located between the East Cumberland garage and the Cora building, and includes Pride face painting, pop-up bars, and tarot card readings. Nearby Raybon Plaza hosts a silent disco (7 p.m.-10 p.m.) emceed by the “Tallest Drag Queen in Captivity,” Daphne Ferraro (pictured).

Metro Inclusive Health—a nonprofit that works to provide “quality health and wellness services that are inclusive, relevant, supportive and represent the lifetime continuum of the diverse people in our community”—will get some of the proceeds.

There’s no cover for the Pride Celebration at Water Street Tampa on Friday, June 7.
