June is Pride Month, and although VA Pride saves its big celebration for the milder temperatures September has to offer, the Endless Summer of Pride is just getting started.

Check out these early events to get the party started.

Scott’s Addition PrideFest | June 1-2
The calendar is packed with events at neighborhood businesses including a disco bubble bootcamp, queer comedy open mic, and drag karaoke. It wraps up Sunday evening with a Pride Patio Party at Pinky’s and closing celebrations at Don’t Look Back.

The Queer Weekend | June 1-2
Get ready for a two-day block party hosted by Richmond Makers Market at Basic City Beer Co. and Legend Brewing. Expect craft beer, live music, drag shows, and food trucks.

Richmond Recovery PrideFest | Sunday, June 2
