Late Apr, 2010 (TBA)
Short for “Lesbians and bisexual women Active in Community Empowerment”, L.A.C.E. is considered one of the hottest lesbian events not only in California, but possibly around the world... and it's a fundraiser for the local LGBT community centre. The event celebrates lesbians who've made a difference to their community and this year's line-up is unbelievable with Gina Gershon hosting, Sharon Stone MCing the silent auction, Uh Huh Her performing and other faves like Clementine Ford, Cybil Shepherd and Sarah Silverman also on hand.

WeHo Dyke March
Early Jun, 2010 (TBA)
If you can't make the L.A. Dyke March, there’s always the Friday night West Hollywood one! Presented by the Lesbian Visibility Committee of the City of West Hollywood, this annual dyke march always attracts some major talent and cute lesbians! In 2007, MEN (the women of Le Tigre) were in charge of the DJ duties and Me'Shell Ndegeocello performed at the after-party.
Los Angeles Pride
Jun 11 - Jun 13, 2010
This one’s a biggie, with hundreds of thousands of people on hand for the celebrations.... and since they're celebrating their 40th anniversary in 2010 I think we can expect it is going to be a huge party! What's also great is the usually on the Friday night and Saturday before the big Sunday parade, there are two different dyke marches: the LA dyke march and the WeHo Dyke March.
Dyke March L.A.
