Phoenix (Gay) Pride Parade - 2007

The Phoenix Gay Pride Parade will be held on Saturday, 14 April, 2007. Parade starts @ 11:00 AM, and goes up 3rd St. For more details, visit the Arizona Pride website at :


We went last year for the first time. It was a blast, despite Liz getting all the beads and invitations to gay bars. You're virtually guaranteed a curbside seat, which means it's a great photo-op. Also, it is a good lesson in cultural diversity. The crowd was 90% gay, so we got to see how it feels to be in the minority for a change.

Taylor Dayne and En Vogue are scheduled to play at the festival, which runs Sat. & Sun. and commences right after the Saturday morning parade. I don't know the show times for TD and EV.

Last year, we only made it to the parade. Perhaps this year, we'll expand our cultural awareness even more by going to the festival.
