Lesbians will finally have a home in the Bay Area for Pride events geared exclusively for them! San Francisco is known world-over for being a gay-friendly city, but it has never actually catered specifically to the lesbian population during Pride. EDEN will become the first-ever San Franciscan weekend dedicated to Pride events for lesbians in the Bay Area. At the helm of EDEN are well-known lesbian event promoters,
Curve Magazine and Olivia Travel.
"There are destination parties for lesbians all over the country at different times of the year," says Franco Stevens, the publisher of
Curve. "But there's never been one in San Francisco during Pride Weekend, which just seemed strange. In a collaborative exchange of ideas between the Bay Areas' best lesbian event promoters, Olivia Travel and us, we worked together to create EDEN, and my guess is San Francisco Pride will never quite be the same."
Assisting in celebration for this ground-breaking lesbian Pride weekend event are LOGO's Julie Goldman, cast members of
The Real L Word of Los Angeles and local DJs (mentioned in the press release was DH Olga T).
Curve, Movement Productions, Olivia Travel, BioBlue Events, FullCircle Events and legendary hotel Parc55 will also be chipping in to make this a truly unforgettable first lesbian Pride weekend. There will be four days of official partying planned (June 24-28, 2010).
