Can you feel it, St. Pete? Pride is in the air. Before the massive Pride parade and festivities take over Central Avenue, the EDGE District’s own Intermezzo and the Royal Palm Night Market plans to go all out ahead of the city’s huge LGBTQ+ celebration. This is Pride Weekend Kickoff at Mezzo.
The festivities begin on Thursday, June 20 during the Royal Palm Night Market from 6-10pm. A wide swath of LGBTQ+ vendors will be in attendance showcasing their handmade, local goods. You can shop for rainbow-themed jewelry, pottery, artwork, burnt wood, vintage clothes, and indulgent snacks all under the stars in St. Pete.
