CHAPPY HOUR: Free Cocktails @ 10th & Piedmont
For those queens who need a little pick-me-up, don't miss this cocktail hour courtesy of CHAPPY - a new gay dating app. No cover - just cute boys, dancing, free drinks, and a photo booth courtesy of Chappy. Get a little buzz with a lovely view of the new Atlanta Rainbow Crosswalks. (*cough*) Starts at 7pm
The Other Show @ Jungle
With the terrible news that Jungle will be forced to close its doors in mid-November, it's time to soak in as much The Other Show as possible. Headlined by Edie Cheezburger and Jaye Lish, we hope this creative cast finds a new home! Doors @ 9pm
Heaven Pride Party with DJ Tracy Young @ Park Tavern
Don't miss DJ Tracy Young spinning her iconic beats at the annual HEAVEN PRIDE PARTY at Park Tavern. She'll be joined by DJ FREECITY playing house & electropop to warm you up. Party starts at 9pm until the early morning! Tickets available here.
Latin Discoteca Pride @ Mary's
If you're looking to do something a little different this year, ditch Midtown and come over to East Atlanta Village for a Latin Discoteca! Beats by DJ Esme (La Choloteca) and Brian Rojas (Deep South). 10pm - Never a cover!
