Dandy’s BIG GAY CABARET! @ the Rio
For Pride this year The Rio Theatre is rolling out the rainbow carpet to welcome not just Vancouver Pride, but nationwide Canada Pride 2024! And whom better to be our honorable ambassador to the world and fellow Gaynadians than our very own Gayest of the Gays, Queerest of the Queers, Dandy!
Celebrate Vancouver & Canada Pride at the most anticipated cabaret of the year! Runner up in Georgia Straight’s BEST OF VANCOUVER 2023 and host of the year 2024, DANDY (tiktok star @dandyandfriends) curates a cabinet of charismatic, Queer, cabaret creators. Live singing, dance, death defying circus feats, drag, burlesque and some fun surprises. You might not be gay when you sit down, but you’ll certainly walk funny by the time you leave. HUZZAH!

Not in the mood to trapse downtown, wait in a 2 hour queue, overpay on cover and drinks to spend 15 minutes in a club before you have to do it all over again at the after hours? Then don’t. Let’s keep this BIG GAY FRIDAY going with a FRIDAY LATE NIGHT screening of that cult and queer classic: THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW! Upgrade your ticket for just $10 and get a reserved seat PLUS a goody bag filled with props to use during the film. During checkout you’ll have the option to upgrade your ticket with the BIG GAY FRIDAY – Rocky Horror Upgrade Pass.
The Rio Theatre lobby and bar will be open between shows and serving up Pride inspired cocktails, mocktails and your favorite gay anthems. Don’t forget to pick up a Rio Theatre Pride Edition T-shirt, check out the merch booth and pose, vogue, pose at our pride photo backdrop. Don’t forget to tag us in your pics @riotheatre
