Swing into Pride with Emerald City Trapeze Arts

What could be better than one night of celebratory Pride fun? How about two nights of celebrating the LGBTQIA2S+ community?!

That’s just what Emerald City Trapeze Arts is offering at their venue with their annual Pride show. The first party kicks off on the evening of Friday, June 12. This premiere night of fun is a dry (no alcohol) event only and begins with a pre-show open house (note: this is an add-on ticket to the show).

Try your hand at a few acrobatic skills with seasoned experts in attendance to show you the ropes on various activities, such as the tightwire, juggling, aerial apparatuses, the German wheel (think hamster wheel, but human sized that flips you all the way around) and more! If giving the apparatuses a whirl, you may want to dress in clothes you can move freely in and, depending on the activity, could be asked to remove shoes and jewelry for safety.

Presented by School of Acrobatics and New Circus Arts, the show that follows (which takes place both evenings) features performers from near and far, with stories and pieces crafted to pay tribute to Pride worldwide. Hosted by artist, vocalist and performer, Caela Bailey, the show will be teeming with exciting acts on the ground and in the air up above.

On the following night (June 13), instead of a pre-show open house, there will be a post-show dance party (also an add-on at checkout) — so between the two nights you can choose your own adventure. If attending on the 13th, expect to dance until one in the morning with beats by Seattle’s own DJ Noa Disco as you bond with your fellow revelers.

FYI, both nights are open to guests 18+, so swing on by for one, or two, unforgettable nights of spectacular performances and animated joy!
