Join us for the kick-off to Nelson Pride 2026! Come and enjoy a free lunch and meet some local 2SLGBTQIA+ folks. Chat, hang out, and stay as long as you like. This is a casual, drop-in event and will be held rain or shine.
Vegan and gluten-free options are available. If you need another option, contact us ahead of time and we will do our best to sort it out.
Smoke note: Wildfire smoke is common in the summer. Please check the air quality
(weather.gc.ca/airquality) and
consider wearing a mask. Masks are welcome at all of our events for any reason.
We encourage you to consider alternative means of transit, including buses, carpooling, walking, or biking, if possible. Please try to leave parking close to the event open for those with accessibility needs, and please use this parking if you need.
