About the event
Pride in Equity is a vibrant, multicultural celebration honoring the artistic, cultural, and community contributions of Canada’s 2SLGBTQ+ communities. This immersive gala transforms the Art Gallery of Burlington into seven rainbow-themed rooms, each offering a unique experience: from drag transformations and Two-Spirit art, to global queer influences, live music, glam stations, and tributes to local leaders.
Guests can freely explore the galleries, participate in interactive art, and engage with live performances by internationally recognized 2SLGBTQ+ artists—including a headlining set in the Rainbow Courtyard, Burlington’s ultimate open-air celebration space.
The evening also features a VIP Dinner honoring local heroes, celebrating the trailblazers, advocates, and changemakers who have shaped 2SLGBTQ+ communities in Burlington and beyond. VIP guests will enjoy a curated meal in an intimate setting, providing the perfect opportunity to connect with community leaders and celebrate their achievements, all while watching a VIP Show.
