The Village at Ed Gould Plaza

On October 5th, the Los Angeles LGBT Center's Second Annual Queerceañera returns for a celebration larger than ever! Spotlighting LA's queer Latinx community, Queerce will once again offer a gender and expression-inclusive reimagining of the quinceañera tradition.

Drag superstar Kandy Muse will be honored at the event, joining RuPaul’s Drag Race alum Salina EsTitties, who will preside as the inaugural Madrina* of Ceremonies for the larger-than-life soirée. Music by DJ BROWNSKIN HAZEL.

Queerce is a lively culturally immersive experience that blends traditional customs with a modern twist. Read more about Queerce in the Los Angeles Times.

This year, the tiaras, gowns, and lashes get bigger for a dramatic presentation you won't want to miss. Alongside our program in Renberg Theatre, guests will enjoy a custom portrait studio, complimentary food and beverage featuring local flavors and Latinx-inspired dishes, as well as a special ‘court’ dance with LA-nightlife-favorite Queerchata.

Free food vouchers will be available to the first 100 guests to check in. The event is all ages, guests 21+ will receive a wristband at the door.
