Attention all classical music fans, Classical Pride is back and this time around it is a five-day extravaganza. In partnership with ViiV Healthcare and GAY TIMES, Classical Pride will take place from 3 to 7 July 2024.
After the success of the inaugural event last year, Oliver Zeffman, Founder and Artistic Director, has announced today (6 March) the expansion of Classical Pride to be a five-day showcase of the breadth and diversity of LGBTQIA+ composers and artists – past and present.
The event will kick-off with a brand new event, titled Classical Drag, which will take place at the Outernet. Zeffman will be joined by a truly gag worthy line-up with Barbs, Snow White Trash, Beau Jangles, Freddie Love and Drag Race UK alum Vinegar Strokes.
Judges and special guests include soprano Pumeza Matshikiza, star operatic tenor Nicky Spence, London legend Jonny Woo and Drag Race All Stars contestants Monét X Change and Thorgy Thor.
