LGBTQ Pride is all online this year. Here is your week-by-week guide

Although the rules around social distancing are ever-changing — and largely tossed aside by the masses who have been out protesting the death of George Floyd in support the Black Lives Matter movement — the events of LGBTQ Pride month have largely moved online, a result of early, cautious planning in response to the still ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

Some upcoming events, just added to the docket in support of BLM, will indeed be held in person — including an All Black Lives Matter Solidarity March in Los Angeles, on June 14, and the Reclaim Pride Coalition’s Queer Liberation March for Black Lives and Against Police Brutality in New York City, on June 28.

But with the parties and performances still moving online, Yahoo Life is here with a week-by-week guide to help you keep ahead of the curve. (Please note that guide will be updated as events are added or evolve and change, so keep checking back.)

This virtual Pride Parade, co-hosted by actress Raven-Symone, will be a 90-minute prime time broadcast featuring in-depth interviews and spotlighting local unsung heroes, queer culture, community activists and never-before-seen footage. Also expect appearances by Alex Newell, Amara La Negra, Asher Entertainment featuring the House of Ninja, Bob the Drag Queen, Carson Kressley, Erika Jayne and more. “The cancellation of in-person events will not deter the spirit of our community, nor will it detract from the enormous impact the founders of our movement have had on history…” promised LA Pride executive director Madonna Cacciatore. “As a community, weathering this storm together will unite us and increase our appreciation for one another.” Find it on ABC7 and iHeartRadio at 7:30 p.m.

Santa Fe Pride, June 27

This virtual pride event will feature Santa Fe’s own DJ Oona Bender will open our special four-hour afternoon T-Dance, all starting at noon.

Boston Pride 2020

This year’s series of virtual events include a Pride Lights ceremony on June 9 at 6 p.m. and a Pride Festival on June 13 at noon. But expect a notable lack of celebration, as the event announced on June 8 it would postpone much of the festivities and instead focus on joining forces with Black Lives Matter. “Boston Pride stands with #BlackLivesMatter and other groups representing Black and Brown people as we move through Pride season and address the systemic racism, injustice and police brutality that has been inflicted on Black and Brown communities for decades,” the website noted. There’s also an ongoing social media initiative, “SHOW YOUR PRIDE,” asking people to decorate their windows, doors, porches, yards, cars, neighborhoods and even their pets for the weekend of June 12-14, and tag them with @bostonpride in Instagram stories and use the hashtag #wickedproud on Facebook and Twitter.

Pride Toronto

This month-long innovative online programming will showcase the best of what’s happening in Toronto, including their local queer and trans trailblazers.
