About the Mayor's Pride Brunch 

The Mayor's Pride Brunch is an annual event that is held during Pride Month (in June of each year) to raise funds for our programs, which are dedicated to supporting, uplifting, and fostering connection for the 2SLGBTQ+ community. In addition to fundraising for our programs, the event increases awareness of the supportive programming that our organization offers. In the past, our brunches have included hosts like MLAs and MPs, speeches from notable community members and public figures, amazing drag and musical performances, and games or contests! The events also give people a chance to engage in community and always include an appearance and speech by the Mayor. 

The programs that we offer are: 

  • Where the Rivers Meet
  • AB GSA Conference
  • Family Resilience Project 
  • Camp fYrefly
  • Fyrefly in Schools
  • CHEW Project YEG
