Pride Afterglow Gala
Overview
A celebration of Pride, community, and the glow we carry forward — in support of Grand River Pride.
Pride Afterglow Gala is a chance to gather, appreciate the work that goes into Pride, and celebrate the community that keeps it glowing. We’ve come a long way, and there’s still more work to do, which makes it even more important to create spaces where people can feel seen, supported, and celebrated.
The Gala begins with a cocktail hour, followed by a three-course dinner and an evening of dancing with DJ Monarch. A dress code is in effect, so come glowing, glamorous, and ready to celebrate Pride in style.
A portion of ticket sales will be donated to Grand River Pride in support of their work building visibility, connection, and community.
Tickets: $79.95, including taxes and gratuity
All ages welcome
