Overview

Fifty years of queer San Francisco. One unforgettable night to celebrate it all.

A historic venue in the heart of a legendary neighborhood, The Castro Theatre has seen a lot. Still, it has never seen a night quite like this one.

San Francisco Pride and Peaches Christ Productions invite you to Built This City: An SF Pride Variety Spectacular. Join us for the official kickoff to Pride 2026, a full-throttle celebration of 50 Years of Queer San Francisco. We're taking over the newly-renovated Castro Theatre for a one-night event that is as bold, brilliant, and beautifully queer as this city has always been. On the bill: this year's Grand Marshals, celebrated on stage in the very neighborhood where so much of our history was made.

Hosted by the incomparable Peaches Christ and Honey Mahogany, the night features performances honoring the long legacy of queer activism, art, and entertainment that Built This City. The official performance lineup includes:

  • The San Francisco Gay Men's Chorus
  • Dear San Francisco
  • Haus Of Cream
  • Miss X & Phillip R. Ford
  • Sister Roma
  • The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence
  • The Cockettes Nouveau
  • BeBe Sweetbriar
  • The Cast of Compton’s Cafeteria Riot
  • The Rice Rockettes
  • Elvis Herselvis
  • Roryography
  • Media Meltdown
  • H.P. Mendoza
  • Jason Brock
  • Jon Ginoli of Pansy Division
  • Dirty Carol of Pansy Division
  • Pippi Lovestocking 
  • Breanna Sinclairé
  • Absolute Empress LII • Mercedez Munro
  • Absolute Empress LVI • Juanita More!
  • Absolute Empress LVII • Ehra Amaya
  • Absolute Empress LIX • Linda Summers
  • Absolute Empress LX • Afrika America

Every ticket is a direct investment in SF Pride's mission to educate the world, commemorate our heritage, celebrate our culture, and liberate our people. You thought it was just a party? Think again.
