PARTY | Queer Pride Festival 2026
June 26th – 28th @ 11th Ave between E. Pike & E. Pine
If there’s one Pride party that consistently goes all out, it’s QPF. The annual Capitol Hill takeover returns with another stacked lineup that blurs the line between music festival, drag extravaganza, and queer cultural event. This year’s headliners include Keke Palmer, party-anthem rapper JT, rapper and actor Junglepussy, and trans house music icon Honey Dijon, alongside DJ sets from reality TV legends Erika Jayne and Tiffany “New York” Pollard.
The drag lineup is just as impressive, featuring Drag Race royalty Sasha Colby, fan favorite Willow Pill, and the recently robbed Jane Don’t, plus hometown stars Stacey Starstruck, Norvina Dubois, and Moscato Sky. Seattle favorite Bosco rounds out the festivities with nightly performances. With major talent spread across multiple stages and a crowd that shows up ready to celebrate, QPF remains one of the biggest and most anticipated Pride events in the city.
CELEBRATE | Indigiqueer Festival
June 27th | 2 – 8 pm @ Pier 62
Among the many Pride celebrations happening across Seattle, the Indigiqueer Festival offers a space centered specifically on Indigiqueer, Two-Spirit, and LGBTQIA+ Indigenous communities. Held at Waterfront Park’s Pier 62, the festival honors identities that have existed on these lands since time immemorial while highlighting the artists, performers, and cultural leaders continuing those traditions today. The event brings together live music, drag, dance, workshops, food, and an artist market featuring Indigiqueer creatives from across the Pacific Northwest, creating opportunities for both celebration and connection. Co-presented with Gathered in This Place, the festival has grown into an important Pride weekend gathering that showcases Indigenous artistry, storytelling, and community in one of Seattle’s most visible public spaces.
MARVEL | La Flaneuse, Le Jardin et Les Fleurs
Opening Reception: June 5th | 6 - 8 pm @ The Seattle Light Room
On View: June 4th - June 27th
In La Flaneuse, Le Jardin et Les Fleurs, artist Ellen Sollod explores the intersections of place, memory, and history through a collection of photographs inspired by Lyon, France. Created over nine years using contemporary digital photography, pinhole photography, and alternative photographic processes, the exhibition reflects on the city's historic landmarks, public gardens, and everyday beauty. Together, these three bodies of work form a visual love letter to Lyon, inviting viewers to consider their own relationship to place while celebrating the enduring allure of French culture and daily life.
