Raven headlines the Purr Pride Kick off Party on Wednesday, June 24, 2015. NO Cover!

Wednesday is the new Friday.

At least during Pride Week. There are several big events happening tonight, Wednesday, June 24 to really rev up your Pride Week festivities.

While we wait for the Supreme Court to announce their decision on Marriage Equality (probably happening on Friday, June 26) you can check out two amazing films about the fight to earn that equality at Northwest Film Forum. Here’s the info:

If you like stars, go to Purr for their Pride Kick Off event with the lovely RPDR Season 2 runner up, RAVEN on hand to host and perform at a NO COVER event!

But, you’re SUPPOSED to charge an arm and a leg for Pride events?!?!!? Are they crazy?!?!!?

Like, our next event Seattle Weekly’s Disco Man of the Year, Mr. Kevin “Nark” Kauer’s annual GENDER BLENDER PARTY which had to change venues/days/talent because apparently LOGO TV has a vendetta against him….the party now stars RPDR Season 7 winner VIOLET CHACHKI with her co-star MISS FAME and from Season 6, the adorable ADORE DELANO and hometown gal/hostess BENDELACREME! Plus, lots of local hookahs working for drink tickets!

The DJs are Rob Winter & Shelrawka and the whole thing benefits Gay City Health Project.

It’s $35 for GA and $70 for VIP which gets you upstairs to hobnob with the stars.

Go here for tickets or at the Door.

Meanwhile, down at Maxim’s in Hillman City (5608 Rainier Avenue South) there’s a fun event for EVERYONE! (over 21) “NEWLYWED GAME WITH PRIDE”!!!!

The skinny:

Hello everyone! We are bringing the television showcase The Newlywed Game right onto the red carpet stage at Maxim’s, and we’re doing it pride style with rainbows and everything. Show some pride in your rainbow union

If you are of the LGBTQ persuasion and have married within the last 12 months, come on down and join us for an evening of fun. Don’t worry if you don’t qualify. Come and watch all the excitement as our host, Mixx, draws on your knowledge about you and your partner.

Although this is an LGBTQ focused event, all couples are welcomed, but don’t be surprised if you get asked some peculiar questions…. 😀
