Miami Life

When the Miami Beach Gay Pride Parade takes over Ocean Drive Sunday, April 8, it’ll mark the tenth anniversary of the event. The celebrity grand marshal who’ll mark this milestone is Olympian and freestyle skier Gus Kenworthy, who competed in both the Sochi and Pyeongchang Winter Olympics. Kenworthy, who came out as gay in 2015 and is known as the first openly gay action sports athlete, will lead the loud and proud parade on Ocean Drive alongside ally grand marshal Roxanne Vargas.

The LGBTQ community and its allies are set to converge on Miami Beach yet again. It’s time for another Winter Party Festival, and this one is an especially big to-do. This year marks the 25th edition of the high-energy, multifaceted fiesta that, in years past, has attracted more than 10,000 attendees.

For the past five years, the SLS South Beach has been home to one of the most titillating networking events in the nation: CamCon. For a few days a year, many of the most beautiful and brazen faces (and bodies) of internet stardom come together to have fun in the sun, make new professional connections, and show their fans some love.

The event will be female-centric, with lesbian bartenders and shot girls, a female DJ, and a Drag King instead of a Drag Queen. Local “gay-lebrity” Noel Aru will host, and DJ La Trice Perry will spin at the first installment of Periodically. Molto, which is also a full-service restaurant, will offer food and drink specials such as happy-hour appetizer prices, $15 cocktail pitchers, $20 beer buckets, and $7 beer and whiskey shots.

Here’s a look at the best free events in Miami this week.
