A warm thanks to everyone who attended Cape Town Travel Massive’s Pride Week celebration in collaboration with Queer Eye Tours at the Grand Daddy Boutique Hotel Rooftop Bar on Friday 1 March, 2024.
Here’s some highlights and news from the evening:
Michael Gladwin from Afrigay Travel shared valuable insights into the LGBTQ+ travel market, while Queer Eye Tours showcased their vision for offering unique experiences to travellers. There was also a call for support to host World Pride in Cape Town in 2028, recognising our region as a beacon of inclusivity and diversity — if you’re interested in learning more, please reach out to Juan Graham Locke or Michael Gladwin.
The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the electrifying performance by BB Valhour (short video) — an amazing Drag Artist who has been performing at the popular Lounge & Club Zer021 and at events such as the Pride Mardi Gras.
Thanks to our sponsors — AB Creations provided delectable eats, with owner Alroy Bailey making a special appearance for the occasion. Prizes generously provided by Luggage Protector and Shark Explorers added to the excitement of the evening — congrats to those who picked up a prize.
Welcome new community leaders! We’re excited to welcome new community leaders Sherise Dreyer and Michaela Crowe to our team, who will bring fresh perspectives and new ideas to our future meetups.
