Fifty years of queer San Francisco. One unforgettable night to celebrate it all.
A historic venue in the heart of a legendary neighborhood, The Castro Theatre has seen a lot. Still, it has never seen a night quite like this one.
San Francisco Pride and Peaches Christ Productions invite you to Built This City: An SF Pride Variety Spectacular. Join us for the official kickoff to Pride 2026, a full-throttle celebration of 50 Years of Queer San Francisco. We're taking over the newly-renovated The Castro for a one-night event that is as bold, brilliant, and beautifully queer as this city has always been. On the bill: this year's Grand Marshals, celebrated on stage in the very neighborhood where so much of our history was made.
Hosted by the incomparable Peaches Christ and Honey Mahogany, the night features performances honoring the long legacy of queer activism, art, and entertainment that Built This City. Your cue? This call. Let's fill every single seat with the folks who are still building it!
The San Francisco Bay Times is a proud media sponsor of this event and is a longtime sponsor of SF Pride.
