It’s Official – We’re Going to Festival Fierté / Montréal Pride for the FIRST TIME EVER

2022 has been the year in person events, and Pride festivities specifically, coming back after the pandemic lock downs. I indivertibly booked myself back to back to back Prides across the country, but as Julio would say, “I’m not mad about it.” As you saw earlier in June we partnered with Destination Toronto and Pride Toronto (click here) – and now it’s time to share that we’ve officially partnered with Festival Fierté Montréal Pride and Tourisme Montréal.

Yes that’s right, we’re off to Montréal and we are bringing you along with us!

The Summer of The Century Kicks Off Now!

With July 1st celebrations about to start taking place, one of the brands I have loved most for as long as I can remember is about to kick off the summer of the century celebrations in the best way possible! Over 50 homes in Toronto will decorated with hundreds of floaties from unicorns to flamingos to dinosaurs; pinwheels and garden gnomes and more – and you’re invited to join in on the excitement with them!

5 Ways to Celebrate Pride in Toronto

As Julio packs his half of the luggage upstairs before we leave for Toronto this weekend for Pride celebrations in partnership with Destination Toronto, I am sitting at our dinning room table looking at my nails and some videos we’ve been teasing of our drag alter egos Anna & Esmeralda here and here. TBH I’m smiling because it feels like I am coming to understand a certain part of myself as a gay man that I never knew properly. I guess the timing couldn’t be any better since this weekend is a jam packed weekend of events, professional drag performances, the Pride Toronto parade and so much more. If you’re still on the fence on how you should celebrate or can support, here’s your answer!

Diner en Blanc Toronto is FINALLY back!

When it comes to events that I would attend every year like clockwork in the “before times” – pre-pandemic I am light-heartedly referencing – there are a handful that I would NEVER MISS when we lived in Toronto. On the other side of what has been a transformative few years, and now living in Ottawa for sake of getting to adoption sooner, I am so excited by the return of one event that we have solidified out tickets and have booked the time off. Let’s talk about the triumphant return of Diner en Blanc Toronto for it’s 9th iteration and a triumphant return and a magical experience we wouldn’t miss for the world!
