Following the Spirit of Stonewall Rally, continue the celebration with San Diego Pride and The Brass Rail at the kickoff of the Arko Park Pride Block Party.
Named after Lou Arko, a businessman who in 1957, purchased the downtown venue and transformed it into a welcoming, safe space for the queer community! This free community event launches Pride Weekend in Hillcrest with live DJs, dancing, and a cash bar. Located across from The Brass Rail, the festivities take place from 8:00–11:00 PM and offer the perfect opportunity to celebrate queer joy and kick off an unforgettable Pride weekend.
