TRACY YOUNG HEADLINE SET IS SUNDAY, SEPT 19
PRESS RELEASE (July 13, 2021) - Miami Beach Pride is happy to announce its legendary pride celebration will return on September 10—19, 2021, with a hotly anticipated festival and parade happening on the weekend of the 18-19, boasting a star-studded roster of almost 100% LGBTQ talent.
World-class entertainers such as Walk the Moon, Carson Kressley, Tracy Young, Alex Newell, Nitty Scott, and Ralphi Rosario are slated to headline the pop and Latin stages this year as well as host other ticketed events during the week-long celebration. The Miami Beach Pride theme and mantra is ONE LOVE, inspired by Bob Marley's iconic song encouraging us to demonstrate love to ourselves and others, and is also the perfect tribute to the tropical surroundings that only Miami Beach can provide.
"We believe that love has the power to unify us. By reinforcing solidarity and acceptance within our community and with our allies, we can truly begin to create more inclusive spaces that are representative of our amazing LGBTQ community," said Miami Beach Pride Executive Director Rich Walczak. "Our brand is built on the concept of self-acceptance and authenticity, that's why we want everyone to feel like they belong at our celebration this year."
Miami Beach Pride, working in tandem with local leaders, announced its new COVID-19 protocols and prevention measures (available online soon) for a safe and exciting festival. The organization has been examining the various factors that can lead to disease spread and seeks to mitigate the spread with a host of safety protocols, including a campaign encouraging attendees to Stop The Spread and Register For Pride. Updates to the flow of the festival include social distancing, mask-wearing, sanitizer stations and distribution, frequent disinfection, increased VIP tent sizes, and online registration.
Miami Beach Pride's online registration portal is now available and all Pride-goers are strongly encouraged to register. Registration enables the organization to more effectively communicate any changes in local, state, and federal COVID-19 safety guidelines and increases the accuracy of their contact tracing program.
To further support the health of the community, The Independent Medical Group will also be onsite to distribute 50,000 COVID-19 vaccinations completely free of charge. The tent will be clearly marked on the festival grounds and open to all attendees.
Weekend VIP packages and tickets to Sweet Spot feat. ULTRA NATE, SOAK Pool Party and Voguing Ball are now officially for sale on our website.
