A Gay Ole’ Time: Pride Festival On The Cheap

July 22nd, 2009 by Andrea

One event that I refuse to miss, regardless of my financial situation, is PRIDE Weekend!

Whether it’s the sweaty shirtless men, the dance parties in the streets, or just the happy and positive vibe it represents, PRIDE is an event like no other! And to top it off, it can be done with little to no money at all!!

Check out this video to see why summer festivals are totally worth going to AND how easily they can be done on the cheap (keeping in mind Virgin Fest hits Vancouver this weekend, Ontario on August 29th/30th, and Alberta on August 8th/9th)!
