PRIDE IN THE DESERT & PRIDE ON PARADE

LESS THAN 3 MONTHS AWAY!

Tucson Pride's 2 signature events, Pride on Parade and Pride in the Desert are just a few short months away and we hope you will join us for these fantastic celebrations!

This year's Pride on Parade is moving back to 4th Avenue and will take place on Friday, October 9, 2009. The procession will begin at 6:00pm and a block party will follow featuring many of this year's Pride in the Desert performers.

Pride in the Desert takes place the following day, Saturday, October 10, 2009 at Reid Park. In addition to great entertainment (see below for more details), Pride in the Desert also features more than 100 exhibitors, the ever-popular IBT's Drag Depot, a Latin Dance tent, fun for the kids, and much, much more. You can purchase tickets online now and take advantage of the pre-purchase 20% discount.

We'll look forward to seeing you for another great weekend of events!
