Celebrate il Mese dell'Orgoglio a Dallas

Get ready to head somewhere over the rainbow in the heart of Dallas. Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Pride Month occurs each June to commemorate the June 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City that launched an international movement for equality. As one of the friendliest and most welcoming cities to the LGBTQ+ community in the nation, Dallas also boasts the sixth-largest queer community of any American city. Pride Month in Dallas officially kicks off on June 1. Still, the entire month brings a rainbow-hued collection of entertaining and educational experiences for members of the community itself and their devoted allies.

1. Festeggiamenti per i 40 anni del Dallas Pride al Pride Festival e alla Pride Parade

Head to Fair Park on June 14 for the first day of Dallas Pride fun. The Dallas Pride Music Festival, presented by Miller Lite will feature a full day of art, food, merchandise, exhibits, and plenty of musical performances, headlined by CeCe Peniston and beloved drag queens, Aquaria, Morphine, and Lardi B. Celebrate with the whole family at the Family Pride Zone which includes games, entertainment, bounce houses, face painters and more. The Teen Zone is an annual event that aims to create a fun, safe space for LGBTQ+ teens to celebrate their authentic selves.

Return to Fair Park on June 15 sporting your best Pride outfit and cheer on the participants in The Alan Ross Texas Freedom Parade that slowly meanders through Fair Park.

2. Lasciate che il vostro spirito sbocci all'Orgoglio in Fiore

Don’t miss the 4th annual Pride in Bloom on June 21 at the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden. The event returns with a day of music, chef demos and local vendors. All partners are LGBTQ+ owned and operated, so support the community all weekend in the gorgeous gardens of the Dallas Arboretum overlooking White Rock Lake.

4. Immergetevi nell'arte e nella cultura al Pride Block Party nel Dallas Arts District.

A night filled with Dallas artists, tasty food, outdoor stages, drag performances, family-friendly activities, and more at their Pride Block Party - June 20 from 6pm to midnight! The museums will host programming in their spaces that features a variety of events, concerts, films, informational tables, and guided Pride-themed tours of museum exhibits.

Nearby, the recently debuted JW Marriott Dallas Arts District will feature special Pride programming throughout the property and make a great home base for a weekend staycation so you can easily walk to and from the Pride Block Party.

5. Sostenere le imprese del quartiere di Oak Lawn

Mangiate un boccone nei luoghi preferiti di Oak Lawn o fate shopping fino allo sfinimento nelle boutique del quartiere. Iniziate bene la mattina con il caffè e il brunch di tutti i giorni da Crickles and Co., sorseggiate cocktail color arcobaleno e mangiate patatine fritte al formaggio da Roy G's, gustate hamburger con contorno di strascichi di prima qualità da Hamburger Mary's Dallas, oppure prendete un panino Chick-full-gAy o delle crocchette e ascoltate musica dal vivo da Alexandre's.

Poi potrete fare un po' di shopping da Out of the Closet, Skivvies, Package Dallas e Outlines Men's Wear.

Naturalmente, è sempre una celebrazione del Pride il momento in cui si varcano le porte dei numerosi bar e club LGBTQ+ lungo la strip. Preparatevi quindi a mischiarvi, a mescolarvi e a fare tante nuove amicizie.

6. Visitare le strisce pedonali arcobaleno, il monumento al Pride e la targa del bivio

Il quartiere di Oak Lawn vanta più strisce pedonali arcobaleno con la prima installazione di strisce pedonali arcobaleno agli incroci lungo Oak Lawn Avenue, ognuna ideale per selfie o foto con gli amici. All'incrocio tra il tratto principale di Oak Lawn e Cedar Springs Road, il Legacy of Love Monument è stato progettato per unire e celebrare la diversità del quartiere. È particolarmente bello da visitare di notte, quando si illumina in un caleidoscopio di colori. Infine, non dimenticate di leggere il Crossroads Marker fuori dal JR's Bar & Grill, il primo marcatore di soggetto storico LGBTQ+ nello Stato del Texas. L'imponente targa commemora l'importanza del quartiere per la comunità queer locale e per la città in generale.
