Events
Festival of the Babes
Sep 4 - Sep 6, 2009
Annual lesbian soccer tournament with 24 teams (about 350 players!) from across North America. This is one of the very rare lesbian sports tournaments around, so enjoy and participate! This usually takes place in Portland, but has moved to San Fran for 2009.
San Francisco Fringe Festival
Early Sep, 2010 (TBA)
The best of underground and alternative theatre and performance. Seeing as this is San Francisco, you're always going to find some great lesbian productions, be it burlesque, plays or dance.
Folsom Street Fair
Late Sep, 2010 (TBA)
This Fair takes place every year on the last Sunday in September. While there are more boys than girls, this is a popular event with the SMBD dyke population and now there’s even a special women’s-only area dubbed Venus' Playground, on Ninth Street between Folsom and Howard. This is a big party…. more than 400,000 leather lovers showed up last year.
San Francisco Love Fest
Early Oct, 2010 (TBA)
Based on the Love Parade that used to happen in Berlin every year, the Love Fest is a one day dance celebration. From over-the-top costumes to naked old men, you'll see it all with thousands of people dancing along behind floats and basically just having an absolute blast. There's usually a few parties happening on the days leading up to the big event that you may want to check out as well.
Castro Street Fair
Early Oct, 2010 (TBA)
A one-day event taking place every year on a Sunday in October. Lots of vendors, street dancing, performances, eating and outdoor fun!
Sugar Valley
Early Oct, 2010 (TBA)
This is pretty much a fair within a fair, taking place right in the middle of the Castro Street Fair. Street art and performance, this is a sweet little spot to the day. For many years it was organized by a group outside of the Castro Street Fair, but since it grew so quickly and so fast, it became a bit much for the grassroots organization. That's why the Castro Street Fair is now hosting this gem of an event.
Sundance Stompede
Mid-Oct, 2010 (TBA)
“The Sundance Stompede began in 2001 as an outgrowth of the annual Hoedown, a gala benefit dance that started in 1997. The Sundance Stompede has grown in scope and attendance and now attracts hundreds of country-western LGBT dance aficionados from all over the world.”
Tranny Fest
Early Nov, 2010 (TBA)
Gender identity takes the stage in this three-day film festival that also has a night of music and performance.
