More than Pride: Great LGBT Festivals Around the World
"I’ve experienced Whistler Pride & Ski Week as North America’s largest gay ski event, where drag queens in hot tubs, daytime adventures from skiing to snowshoeing (or lounging by the fireplace with hot cocoa), and steamy late-night parties combine into a relaxing yet party-oriented week that’s easy to enjoy as a couple or a single." - Matthew Kepnes
They want our cash but put bare minimum in. Thursday Tea Dance 2025 was an embarrassment globally. $60 to get access to a room with $30 drinks and awful music that no one could dance to. People expect something for their hard earned cash. Save it.

The organization is deplorable. No communication. Events just canceled without even a NOTICE! This event used to be so much fun now it seems like they don't even care about it anymore!
