Saguaro Cup Sports Festival
Apr 10 - Apr 11, 2010
Softball is super-popular in Phoenix, and this festival is a testament to this queerly popular pastime. The Saguaro Cup is one of the biggest gay and lesbian softball tournaments in the country with more than 90 teams participating.
Phoenix Gay Pride Festival and Parade
Apr 17 - Apr 18, 2010
It gets brutally hot down in Arizona during the summer months, which is why their Pride festivities are the first of the season in the United States. If they were to hold off until June, people would probably get heat stroke partying outdoors! Over this pride weekend they hold a parade, concerts, outdoor dance parties, a Pride Run and lots more.
Pandora Festival
Mid-May, 2010 (TBA)
Presented by the Arizona Women’s Theatre Company, this annual, two-weekend festival “stages readings of new works by 20 Arizona women playwrights. The Festival features full-length, one-act and 10-minute plays chosen by a juried panel and produced by experienced Valley directors and actors.
Arizona Fetish Ball
Early Oct, 2010 (TBA)
A pansexual, yet extremely queer, extravaganza of kink galore. This annual event is a must-do for those who enjoy the fetish or BDSM lifestyle.
Rainbows Festival
Early Oct, 2010 (TBA)
Where April’s Pride parade opens the American Pride season, the Rainbows Festival is one of the celebrations to close it out. This weekend party is held in Heritage Square Park and attracts upwards of 25,000 participants. This year the festival coincides with the annual AIDS walk, which should bring even greater participation to the event.
