Colombo Pride Jun 30 - Jul 5, 2009 Colombo, Sri Lanka Pride
For those of us who live in Europe, North America or Australia, it's hard to imagine the courage needed by queers in Sri Lanka to hold their annual Pride celebrations.  Homosexuality remains a criminal offense in Colombo, but that hasn't deterred the local queer rights organisation, Equal Ground, from organising this event.  And what an event it is; despite the fact that only a few hundred people participate, there is still a small film festival, a dance and a celebratory party at the beach.

This somewhat new event launched in 2007, and promises 24-hour a day, fun gay stuff to do.  One of the main hosts of this event is Cirque du Soleil, and they present the opening night party.  But for the ladies, it’s the Betty’s Outrageous Adventures party to watch out for.

National Women’s Music Festival Jul 2 - Jul 5, 2009 Madison, U.S.A. S/C
A four-day musical and cultural extravaganza held indoors at the Illinois State University (yay, no rainouts and real toilets!!) Make sure you’ve caught up on your sleep before you arrive, ‘cause you won’t have much there. Workshops, concerts, comedy, theatre presentations, dances, a marketplace, newly released films and videos, a live auction, a fine arts exhibit, spirituality series, writer’s series, animal lovers series and a celebrity golf scramble will keep you very, very busy.

Central Coast Gay Pride Jul 10 - Jul 12, 2009 San Luis Obispo, U.S.A. Pride
San Luis Obispo is located midway between San Francisco and Long Beach, which means it's one of the smaller California prides.  That said, it's still a great pride event with tons of excellent events especially for women.

Outfest: Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Film Festival Jul 9 - Jul 20, 2009 Los Angeles, USA Film
This LGBT film fest started up in 1982, and since then it has pretty much grown into one of the world’s primo queer film festivals.  Nowadays Outfest lasts almost two weeks and shows hundreds of flicks, many of them just for the girls.  Add in a few dozen parties, also with a number of them for the bent girls, and you’ve got a recipe for success.
