Here's a full schedule and guide to WeHo Pride Weekend 2024

For decades, West Hollywood has been home to one of the most vibrant, politically powerful and culturally rich LGBTQ communities in the world. 

Each year, thousands flock to its annual Pride celebrations.

This year, the city led the way into Pride Month, which is June, on Wednesday with the second annual José Sarria Drag Pageant, a tribute to the San Francisco political activist and drag performer who was the first openly gay person to run for public office in the U.S. Since then, WeHo's neighbor, the city of Los Angeles, declared the pride flag would be raised outside LA City Hall for the first time.

Now, WeHo Pride Weekend 2024 is here.

The iconic festivities this weekend will be filled with free music, festivals, drag shows, street fairs, a parade and more all in the celebration of queer joy and advocacy of LGBTQ civil rights.

Things started off with the OutLoud music festival Friday night at West Hollywood Park, a concert that was free with prior registration and featured Kesha as the headliner along with Adam Lambert and RuPaul's Drag Race star Monét Exchange, among others.

As WeHo's celebrations dive into the weekend, Saturday and Sunday's schedule is jam-packed.
