🎉 The 8th Annual Pride & Progress Ball: ICON 🎉

We’re back, and more ICONIC than ever!

Join us this Pride Month for a night of celebration, connection, and unapologetic self-expression at the Pride & Progress Ball, our free and inclusive queer formal for LGBTQIA+ young people aged 15–24.

✨ This year’s theme is ICON – a celebration of queer brilliance, trailblazers, pop culture royalty, personal heroes, and the ICONIC spirit that lives in every one of us. Whether you're channelling your inner diva, donning your best red-carpet look, or rocking a fit that feels 100% you, this is your moment to shine.

What’s in store?
Get ready for a night of affirming, joyful chaos – we’ve got:

🎧 Live DJ & Dance Floor
📸 Photobooth Moments
🌿 Chill-Out Room / Quiet Space
🎭 Fabulous Feud – Our Beloved Queer Game Show Returns!
🍕 Free Food & Drinks (with dietary options for all)
🎲 Tabletop Roleplaying Games
