Pride around the Metroplex
Arlington Pride Burbs and venues keep Pride alive throughout DFW RICH LOPEZ | Staff writerrich@dallasvoice.om Pride is everywhere all at once this weekend — or at least these few places, this weekend and beyond.

From Deep Ellum to Fort Worth, Pride obviously knows no boundaries in North Texas. Although every year, it seems like Pride is more important than ever, this time it’s not just about celebrating our communities but showing up to remind us of that old adage: We’re here, we’re queer, get used to it. Friday, June 2: Ride Your Pride, Double Wide If you want drag queens, live music and “queer shit,” head to Deep Ellum for DW’s Pride kick-off party.
Live music includes queer Southern rock band Thelma and the Sleaze, synth-pop country artist Pelvis Wrestley from Austin and local artists Barbie Bank Rose and Kameron Ross.
