SAN DIEGO — WHAT’S IT GIVING?

Very Pride is crossing coasts for the first time ever — and we’re landing loud. From the streets of Chicago to the coast of California, we’re bringing queer joy, deep grooves, and the magic of chosen family to San Diego.

NEW LOCATION!

📍 The Soap Factory – 2995 Commercial St, San Diego, CA 92113
🕓 Starting: 5PM — 2AM
🎶 Same iconic DJs & Host

This isn’t your average Pride party. This is house music heaven, queer excellence, and full-on summer energy rolled into one unforgettable night.

🎧 LINEUP

DERRICK CARTER
One of the founding fathers of Chicago house, Derrick needs no introduction—but we’ll give him one anyway. His sets are legendary: funky, fearless, and filled with pure soul. From underground basements to international stages, he keeps dancefloors locked in the groove and lifted by joy. This is a rare West Coast appearance — don’t miss it.

KARSTEN SOLLORS
Commanding, hypnotic, and undeniably sexy. Karsten’s sound is equal parts underground heat and refined energy — a slow build to euphoria with every set. He knows how to move a room and create space for bodies to release, connect, and transcend.

ALEXIS TUCCI
A walking disco ball and high priestess of funk. Alexis blends classic house, deep grooves, and glitter-drenched energy in a way that feels like a spiritual release. Expect to twirl, sweat, and maybe cry. If liberation had a soundtrack, she’d be spinning it.

NIC JERICHO
Moody, percussive, and intensely emotional. Nic curates soundscapes that feel cinematic—pulling you into a darker, richer frequency of house. Think basement rave meets art film. Deep feels, no filler.

🎤 HOSTED BY
Khloe Couleé · Miss Toto · Brenna Jordan · Matt Palmer · Chichi Fuera · Maddy Mokes · Stephen Clarke

Come early, stay late, and bring your look.
The first West Coast edition of Very Pride is a moment — and you’re invited.

Last year, Very Pride! was a love letter to Chicago—this year, we’re turning up the volume, turning up the heat, and turning Cermak Hall into the ultimate Pride celebration. On June 20th, we’re bringing the beats, the energy, and the community together for a night of pure queer joy, music, and unapologetic self-expression.

And this year? We’re doing it with purpose. We’re proud to announce that Very Pride! is an official Partner in Pride with Pride Chicago, making this night not just a party, but a movement. 🌈🔥

Expect an unforgettable lineup featuring LEGENDS:

• Kevin Aviance – Ballroom icon and dance music royalty
• DJ Minx – Detroit’s house music powerhouse
• The Carry Nation – NYC’s favorite underground dancefloor disruptors
• Janky – Bringing the sound, the energy, and the unexpected

From the moment you step inside Cermak Hall, you’ll be immersed in a night where the music is loud, the dance floor is packed, and the vibes are electric. This is more than a party—it’s a celebration of queerness, culture, and community like no other.

What’s it giving? VeryPride!
