We'll be closed today, Monday 6/8, so our team can recharge after an incredible PrideFest celebration.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who came out, supported, performed, volunteered, sponsored, danced, laughed, and helped make this year's event so special. The love, energy, and community we experienced yesterday were truly unforgettable.

We'll be back tomorrow at 2pm ... rested, refreshed, and still riding that PrideFest high. 🏳️‍🌈✨

🏳️‍🌈 PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU PARTY! 🏳️‍🌈

Wilmington PrideFest is officially THIS SUNDAY, and this post answers some of the most common questions we've been getting! Save it, share it with your crew, and give it a quick read before heading our way. 💖✨

The countdown is officially on for Sunday, June 7th from 2–8PM at Hi-Wire Brewing!
A few important things to know before you arrive:
🚨 PrideFest starts at 2PM this year (not noon!)
🚪 Main event entrance will be located on 11th Street
🚌 Free shuttle service will run continuously between Hi-Wire and the 2nd Street parking deck
🚻 Additional porta-potties will be available outside to help keep bathroom lines moving
💧 Visit the First Aid & Hydration Tent for free water, with bottled water available at the bars for $1
🌈 Need a breather? Our back patio will be available if you need a break from the crowds
🐾 We love your pups, but this event will be loud, crowded, and overstimulating for many dogs so we recommend leaving them at home
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 PrideFest is family-friendly, but drag performances are not censored, so please use your best judgment for younger attendees
❤️ Stay hydrated, take breaks when needed, and celebrate safely all day long

✨ EVENT SCHEDULE ✨
🎉 Vendor Market | 2–8PM
💃 Community Drag Show hosted by Coop De Ville Heaux | 2:30PM
🎶 Live Music | 4PM
