The main celebration happens at Wrigley Stage in central Avalon, featuring a Pride Walk supporting the LGBTQ+ community and a late-night after party.

Catalina Pride’s entertainment program is driven by high-energy live music and DJ sets, with headliner Pulp Vixen bringing a bold, crowd-pleasing performance to the waterfront stage.
