Banff Pride Launch Party

The rooftop. The Rockies. Banff Pride lands at the Rose & Crown for one night that runs from golden hour to last call.

The countdown to Banff Pride starts here.

Join us at the Banff Rose & Crown on Saturday, August 29 for the official launch of the 2026 Banff Pride Festival. We’ll begin the evening on the rooftop patio with drag performances, local DJs and major festival announcements, including this year’s headliners.

Be among the first to hear what’s coming, win prizes and get early access to festival tickets.

Start on the patio (8 to 10pm) with a DJ and drag performances while the sun slips behind the peaks. Then move inside to the back bar, where the music keeps going and encore performances takes it past midnight.

2SLGBTQIA+ folks and allies, this one's for you. Come as you are. Find your people.

Saturday, August 29. 8pm to 1am. 18+. Rose & Crown, Banff.

$15 online, $20 at the door. Grab your ticket early and save five bucks.
