PRIDE IN DEMAND: FT. ILOVEMAKONNEN PORTLAND QUEER TAKEOVER

Pride in Demand lands at Star Theater for a two-night Pride Weekend celebration spotlighting Queer and Trans excellence across music, drag, and comedy. Night One features co-headlining sets from MORGXN and iLoveMakonnen, alongside comedy from Guy Branum and Mx. Dahlia Belle, with drag performances by Transjenifahs Gawdy and Monique Michaels. Night Two continues with Gia Woods and iLoveMakonnen co-headlining, plus comedy from Jeffrey Jay and Rachelle Cochran, and drag by Jay Colby and Heavy Cream.

Hosted both nights by Quesa D’Mondays, this takeover blends live concert energy with cabaret intimacy. Stick around for the official afterparty—free with your ticket or weekend pass—featuring music by DJ Rockstar Aaron on 7/17 and a Glass Battles DJ set on 7/18, with drag performances by STARR and hosted by comedian Belinda Carroll both nights. With GA, VIP, and two-day festival ticket options, Pride in Demand is one of the most dynamic and inclusive Pride events in the city.
