🎉🎉🎉 SATURDAY AUGUST 8 DTES PRIDE 2026 🎉🎉🎉

DTES PRIDE is a community collaborative production held in the heart of Vancouvers Downtown Eastside. Led by the artists and sponsored by organizations such as Carnegie Centre, Two-Spirit United, the Overdose Prevention Society, and more.

Our venue, the Balmoral Lot, at 159 E Hastings St holds a complex 110-year legacy. Since its ceremonial demolition, it has been transformed into a space of joy and healing to remember the MMIWG2S+ . We are honoured to be part of revitalizing this space in a good way 🙌

Expect performances all day from local DTES and 2SLGBTQIA+ artists such as and .ca with more to be announced.

And back by popular demand is the Arts and Cultural Walk of the neighborhood with famed street artists Smokey Devil and GURL23.
