VANCOUVER PRIDE WEEKEND CLOSING PARTY | FIVE YEAR ANNIVERSARY
Sunday, Aug 2nd @ 9:30pm-4am
Harbour Convention Centre
760 Pacific Blvd.
TICKETS & INFO
Five years ago you took a chance on us. ❤️ Since then we've forged queer spaces in warehouses, theatres, straight nightclubs, parking lots, abandoned casinos, and just about every corner of Vancouver that would (and occasionally wouldn't) let us gather. Queer spaces don't appear magically, they are carved out by hand. They survive because of your direct love and support. Five years later, we're still here. Louder, sweatier, gayer, and slightly more ventilated.
The Gay Agenda’s sold-out Pride Weekend Closing Party returns August 2nd. And this year, we’re dancing till 4AM. Vancouver’s biggest pride party will transform the Harbour Convention Centre into a queer utopia of chosen families, giant rainbows, and international pride talent; with three parties across two stages.
Y'all ready? Let’s fucking go babes.
Introducing your Vancouver Pride Closing Party talent:
Crowd fave killer BRADY PRINCE returns to the main stage, 🌈 international pride legend J WARREN is coming to decimate the dance floor with his brand new GRAVITY SESSIONS high energy, vocal tech-house set, heartthrob CARTFISH lands in Vancouver for the very first time to headline the newly renovated 😈 COCKPIT stage, along with Del Stamp, Zaya Ziggy and Oh My Gord. DISCO JUICE takes flight at the main stage for the first time with residents Esteban B2B Meester Jake, and our beloved DJ Alma Bitches returns to sprinkle her magic ✨ over the dance floor and get us ready for... RuPaul Drag Race star mother-trucking [❄❄❄❄❄❄❄❄], Drag Race All star crowd fave DAWN, Canada’s Drag Race star AURORA MATRIX, and our host, the hilarious and absolutely stunning BLISS.
Voices will be lost. Friendships will be cemented. And whether you're twirling under the Pride Stage lights or sweating it out in the dark euphoria of Cockpit, you’ll be exactly where you’re supposed to be: in a room with 2000 people celebrating our right to exist.
Pride 2026 is shaping up to be our biggest one yet 🚀 and trust us... you're going to want to be right in the middle of it. As we celebrate five incredible years of The Gay Agenda, we're pulling out all the stops for a Pride celebration worthy of the occasion.
Because Pride has always been more than just a party 🏳️🌈 It’s a declaration. A reminder that our community continues to show up louder, prouder, and more united than ever. Every beat drop, every scream on the dance floor, every drag performance, every hug, it all exists because generations before us fought for the right to live openly, love freely, and take up space 🏳️⚧️
So bring your chosen family, your hottest lewks, your thirstiest energy, and your full unapologetic self as we close out Vancouver Pride Weekend together in pure queer chaos, connection, celebration, and euphoric community love.

🪩🧃DISCO JUICE🧃🪩 (Pride Stage 9:30PM)
Where it all began. Before house music filled queer spaces, gays danced the night a way with black disco pioneers in brilliant spaces across North America. Anyone who has been to a disco party knows there is truly no better way to start a party night. Whether you’re a disco fan or a professional partier who is too seasoned to wait in a processing cue, join the performers, queens and volunteers as we take off together and soar into the bright gay skies.
🏳️🌈 ICONS 🏳️🌈 (Pride Stage 10:30PM)
Please raise your freak flags for our national anthems. 🙏 Close your eyes and imagine the ultimate pride party: the colours, the giant hugs and big smiles, the outfits, the cutie standing in front of you, the gogo dancers, the Queens and the affirming dance-neighbour side nods when the beat drops just right… and then add an eighty-foot-wide music festival stage, a giant rainbow, a print-out photo booth and confetti cannons. Dance and sing like everyone and no one is watching. From pride anthems to high energy, sickening performances seamlessly mixed into dancey vocal house sets… Icons will be the gayest, brightest, and most fabulous Vancouver Pride party you have ever been to.
😈 COCKPIT 😈 (Tech Stage 10:00PM)
Queer Euphoria & Sweaty Tech-House. Step into the Berlin-inspired modern paradise of Cockpit as we redefine the circuit party. Feed your desires beneath a constellation of lasers at the fully evolved cockpit stage experience. COCKPIT resurrects the judgement-free, queer togetherness of the original 1980's 'circuit' era 🖤 combined with the fabulous fetish and circuit fashion of today.

A portion of the ticket proceeds will be donated to trans, 2-spirit, and queer Indigenous youth support, resources, and programming.
The Gay Agenda events are held on the stolen and unceded, ancestral territories of the the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. As we gather and organize queer events on these lands, it is our collective responsibility to recognize the histories and continued presence of settler colonialism. Our ability to feel joy and love through our queerness is in part due to the immense work of 2S, queer, and trans Indigenous peoples in refusing the violence of settler colonialism. While we celebrate our queerness together on these territories let us also work to repair the harms inflicted upon Indigenous communities and peoples.
