San Francisco is celebrating its 45th annual Pride! Are you ready for the #SFPride festivities? I know I am! I also know that sometimes it’s difficult to find what you’re looking for when every guide, article, photo and blog post you see is almost exclusively for the guys. But don’t despair, we’ve done the job of finding THE parties, events and parades that apply to you – the most attractive, funny, intelligent reader we know – in our Ultimate Lesbian Guide to San Francisco Pride 2015!
But wait! There’s more. We’re also giving away 2 pairs of LUXE VIP tickets to EDEN Pride Weekend. All you have to do is enter below for your chance to win the experience you’ve been dreaming of since your first Pride. (This is your first Pride!? Even better. Get those tickets!)

I don’t know a single self-respecting lesbian that won’t be at Dolores Park on Pride Saturday. It’s a lezzy tradition of epic proportions with day drinking, sun tanning (read: burning), oil wrestling and the best people watching you’ll do all year.

When: Saturday, June 27
Time: 10:00am – 6:00pm
*We strongly recommend taking public transportation (J train, what’s up!) and early arrival for a prime spot. Safe space for your friends!
Dyke March is an institution in San Francisco. Whether you’re just checking out the booths at Dolores or marching hand-in-hand to The Castro you NEED to see this annual event. I mean, hundred of dykes, people… no brainer.
Route: Line up on Dolores St. March northbound at 18th, east on 17th, north on Valencia, west on 16th, end at The Pink Party!
When: Saturday, June 27
Time: 3:30pm

It’s massive. It’s outdoors. And it’s outrageously pink. I mean really pink. So hit The Castro after the Dyke March to continue your day-drinking and jam out to even more entertainment. PLUS purchase a Pink Party ticket and give back to your local LGBT Center! Winning.
Venue: The Castro

When: Saturday, June 27

This has got to be one of the best Pride parades in the country. Head there early to snag prime positioning as close to the street as possible and when you’ve seen enough (read: you get thirsty/hungry) head towards Civic Center for an incredible Pride Fest. Equality Without Exception, y’all!

You’ll be burnt, you’ll be sweaty, you’ll be sleepy BUT you will not be done. After a day out in downtown SF, head to Harlot for UHAUL’s Pride closing party. It will be worth every bit of pain on Monday (like you’re goin’ to work on Monday… hilarious). So see you there.
