It’s become ubiquitous in the LGBTQ community — and for good reason. It’s been leaving its mark for more than 30 years and shows no signs of stopping.
It’s more than a party. It’s more than hooks-ups. It’s The Dinah. It is the largest and longest-running LGBTQ event and music festival for queer women in the world.
And the culture and longevity of the weekend of events known as The Dinah is due in no small part to founder and producer Mariah Hanson.
