The Summer Solstice is a celebration of JOY and light for cultures throughout the world. Its a day to be out and visible in the world - perfect for The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence and for LBGT Pride Month.
Join all your friends in the community for a fun and friendly celebration of Pride and JOY as we welcome in the Summer in Balboa park.
If you've never seen the Sisters in action, this is your opportunity - as the Sisters perform a public ceremony to empower the community and invoke the energy of Summer - along with some great entertainers from throughout our community.
Plus, you can compete in our Whimsical Spirit costume contest - Nymphs, Satyrs, Fairies or Whatevers - We've got some fun prizes lined up for best, sexiest, and most original costumes plus all the bragging rights. If we have any kids join us for the contest, they'll have prizes too.
We'll finish up the day with a drumming circle, so if you have your drums at home, bring them along, and we'll have some extras there if you want to join in!
There will be food and drink including a great selection of vegan and vegetarian options.
Our community gatherings provide people of any background or identity a safe place to feel welcome and enjoy the company of open minds.
Event is free, but you can participate in our raffle and help to raise funds to support TransPride and The San Diego Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.
Here is our very approximate schedule:
1:00-2:30 pm - Arrive, socialize, eat - musical accompaniment by local artist
Around 2:30 pm - we'll start The Sisters' presentation and other performances
Drumming circle will start around 3:30 pm
Costume contest winners will be announced around 4 pm
Prize drawings will be throughout the event - but you don't have to be there for the whole event to win.
