Fruit Loop is excited to bring you not one, but TWO incredible weekends of Pride programming. June 3 -5 and June 11. Proceeds from both weekends will support our community partner, the Edmonton Centre for Newcomers’ Rainbow Refuge program! 

From June 3 - 5 we will be partnering with the Grindstone Theatre for a FREE and FAMILY-FRIENDLY street fair of epic proportions. Pride activities will be returning to Old Strathcona in the garage district as we host a series of outdoor live performances, drag shows, dancers, photo booths, community booths, workshops, food trucks, beer gardens and late night dance parties to celebrate Pride here in Edmonton. 

With main stage takeovers by Indigi Hauz of Beaver Hills, Party Queens, and your Fruit Loop favourites, live music by Matthew and the Keys, Emmet Michael, and Homofonik.

Free educational/experiential workshops will be offered Sunday including house dance, heels dance, burlesque, and voguing! Register here for these sessions.

Heading to Evolution Wonderlounge to continue the party after our main stage sets? Our 10pm shuttle bus will bring you back downtown.

Many thanks to our Presenting Sponsor TD with outstanding support from SeaChange Brewing, Freddie, Pattison Advertising, the City of Edmonton, and the Old Strathcona Business Association!
