With trans rights under attack nationwide, this pilgrimage from Dolores Park to the Tenderloin’s Transgender District is where gender-nonconforming people and allies take up space. Instead of corporate floats, you’ll find protest signs affirming the diversity of the gender spectrum and calling for equal rights to healthcare and housing. The annual Bustin’ Out afterparty at El Rio after the march is a benefit for Transgender Gender-Variant & Intersex Justice Project (TGIJP), an organization that fights prison abuses and supports formerly incarcerated trans people. DJ sets by Dreams, Succubus, Honeybear and Lady Ryan will turn up the energy, and there’ll be a designated chill zone next door at Mothership with music by Piano Rain and Del. San Francisco’s all-Black drag show, Reparations, will host performances. Presales have sold out, so getting there early to snag door tickets is a must.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13936004\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1288px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13936004\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2023/10/Cornelius.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1288\" height=\"725\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2023/10/Cornelius.jpg 1288w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2023/10/Cornelius-800x450.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2023/10/Cornelius-1020x574.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2023/10/Cornelius-160x90.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2023/10/Cornelius-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1288px) 100vw, 1288px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">VivvyAnne ForeverMORE! \u003ccite>(Marcel Pardo Ariza)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca href=\"https://www.eventbrite.com/e/forever-queer-pride-dancing-and-drag-tickets-915617696177?\">Forever-Queer Pride Dancing and Drag\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Friday, June 28, 9 p.m.–Saturday, June 29, 2 a.m.\u003cbr>\nThe Stud, San Francisco\u003cbr>\n$20\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Legendary queer bar The Stud recently reopened its doors in SoMa, and drag performer Vivvyanne ForeverMORE! is kicking off a new party during Pride weekend: Forever.
