This date is in alignment with National Coming Out Day, which falls the upcoming Wednesday.
Our main stage entertainment will have Whalen and the Willows, Ladies of the 80’s, Prairie Clamor, Roxi and the Bb Boys, and local Drag Artists!

We will be having resources provided by Riverland Community College, Planned Parenthood with their Teen Council tent, OutFront Minnesota, Hope for the Day, The Trevor Project, Fernbrook Family Center, Gender Sexuality Alliance Rochester – UMR, and many more! We also have local vendors selling goods such as jewelry, plants, personal accessories, and home decor.
