What to Expect
We work hard to bring all the best to you! We have strict standards on what sponsors and vendors we allow. We hand select every food and alcohol vendor. We review every application to participate to ensure our contractors and participating organizations are LGBTQ+ affirming, safe, and inclusive. We also work to bring a number of free activities that give you a lot of bang for your five bucks. At the Festival, the only things that should cost are food, alcohol, and any trinkets you'd like to purchase. If you see something we could do better, don't hesitate to tell us, we're always listening! Check out what sponsors, vendors, and nonprofit groups will be joining in the fun!


Activities & Family Fun
​We offer a lot of free and family-friendly activities that are great regardless of your age. You could meet Steve the Magician wandering to provide slight of hand a good joke. Our friends from the local fire and rescue and police department are on site to show off their vehicles. For the little ones we have an obstacle course, a bounce house, two face painters, a balloon artist, and lots of friendly vendor-sponsored activities like rock painting. For the young-at-heart, we've got axe throwing, a bunch of selfie stations, drag performers, the main stage shows, and so many vendor-sponsored activities like group yoga, vision boards, and more.

Food, Alcohol, & Desserts
Time to dish - we love to eat! And knowing our way around the county and the kitchen, we've made lots of friends. Some come form the best breweries, award-winning wineries, and the craftiest cocktails-in-a-can like our friends at Jack Daniels, Williams Gap Vineyard, and Black Hoof Brewing. Or, if you need to fill our belly, we've got delicious options from around the world including Uncle Fred's BBQ, DC (pizza) Slices, Skrimp Shack, Taco Town, and so many more! But the meal isn't done without something sweet, which is why we invite our friends at Lattimore's Funnel Cakes, Color Puff Cotton Candy, King of Pops, and so many others!

Performances & Entertainment
The best part of every festival is the music and the stage shows! We always work to bring in a diverse group of queer performers who can rock the stage and get you on your feet. With incredible and diverse bands and solo artists like Crash the Limo, Felix Pickles, Justin Trawick, DJ Pope, Lauren Reedy, and the Reagan Years - we always bring the boom, the soul, and the big finish! Speaking of big finishes, don't miss Dragstravaganza! The region's largest and best family-friendly drag showhas featured a host of performers like fan favorites and icons including Crymsin, King Molasses, Shoujo a Gogo, Anja Dick, and so many more. We work hard to keep it fun, flirty, and family-friendly so we can all enjoy the incredible art of drag! Click here to find out what performances and entertainment we'll be featuring this year!
