Cherry Weekend
April 12 – 15, 2019
What better way to celebrate the beginning of spring than deflowering D.C. gays? Shake your cherry blossoms at these weekend dance parties. In addition to a large circuit party, Cherry actively raises funds to support the HIV/AIDS service and prevention community. To date, they’ve raised more than $988,000. Win-win.
White Party
April 26 – 29, 2019
The weather in Palm Springs ranges from beautifully warm to a bit too hot. Jeffrey Sanker’s White Party, going into its 27th year, is just plain sizzling. Hot. Hot. Hot. It claims to be the biggest gay circuit party in the world, and it doesn’t disappoint, assuming that’s your thing. White Party electrifies the desert with a spicy array of men, music, DJs and superstar talent. You can ogle the photos, or you can finally see (and feel) for yourself.
