UNIVERSAL CITY — Universal Studios will stay open after hours for a special LGBTQ night in the week leading up to the LA Pride Festival and Parade.
“Pride is Universal,” launched last year, will take place June 2 at the theme park and help launch LA Pride week, June 1-10.
Each “Pride is Universal” ticket, advance tickets are on sale, gives access to the park and the after-hours festivities, from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m., including live DJs, dance clubs, and character meet and greets.
The LA Pride Festival will take place June 9 and 10 in West Hollywood Park on San Vicente Boulevard — between Santa Monica Boulevard and Melrose Avenue — and in the Pacific Design Center Plaza.
Single tickets are $20, and individual weekend passes are $30.
The LA Pride Parade will take place June 10 along Santa Monica Boulevard. The parade was replaced last year with a Resist March protesting the Trump Administration.
