World Pride is around the corner and the scene has become electric with events and acts based on equality, showcasing the voices of the unheard and underrepresented.

The lineup includes a bevy of local artists, electronic-disco phenoms, newly minted drag superstars and more. It is worthy of a tongue pop + death drop combo move, for sure. Updated posters can be found here.

If your average festival has stars on the bill, Ladyland is a constellation of icons.” – The New York Times

“Equal parts Coachella, Berlin nightclub, and queer warehouse rave, there was something for everyone under the Mirage’s palm trees. The all-night romp started at 5 p.m. and ran well into the wee hours of the morning, bolstered by a bill as freewheeling as it was sonically diverse.” – Billboard

“…LadyLand — where Coachella meets queer nightlife.” – PAPER Mag

Ladyfag, the mind behind Holy Mountain, Battle Hymn, 11:11, and Mouth Your Body, to name a few, has been dubbed “a nightlife sorceress” by the New York Times and “the woman saving New York nightlife” by Paper Magazine. She is known for producing afterparties for some of the most renowned fashion brands in the world, all while helping to keep New York busy dancing. New York City’s “reigning queen of nightlife” (according to Vogue) took the party outside last year for her first festival: LadyLand. This year she’s bringing it back for two days at NYC World Pride!
