This is a big year for Pride! DC is hosting WorldPride, showcasing equality all over the world in our backyard. In honor of this momentous year, Port City is joining in on the celebration on June 14th with our annual Priday Party!
We start the day with a mini-market composed of 10+ LBGTQ vendors from 12-4pm, La Tingeria food specials, cold beer, and yard games. Featuring works and merchandise from (in no particular order):
- Slally Pottery
- Potomac Candle Co.
- Kellie Sansone Creates
- Lykha
- John Wasowitz Books
- Bandidas Hot Sauce
- Casey Julia Designs
- Botanical Things & Happily Ever Linked Permanent Jewelry
- Ivy Pottery
- Stop Shop & Prop
- Kirsten Z Shop
- Klayish
- A Girl & A Yarn Stash
We are also hosting a special tie-dye Port City pop-up during the market from 1-3pm where you will get the opportunity to create your own colorful PCBC logo shirt to take home with you! Julia and Alice, our resident artist gurus, will walk you through the process, provide all dyes and equipment, plus show you some fun designs to try. We will have some shirts available for walk-ups but cannot guarantee size availability day-of. We highly recommend using this link to secure your shirt today:

BUT THAT'S NOT ALL: Be sure to stick around and join us that evening for the main event! Our annual Drag Show will take place in our brewhouse starting at 5pm featuring Miss Gay Arlington, Raven Samore, and G. Abrasax. This event was a huge hit last year, so we recommend arriving early to claim your seat. Make sure to bring your singles!
DASH Bus will be offering a complimentary shuttle service between King Street Metro and Port City for the occasion, so getting to and from the brewery has never been safer. When you get off the metro, look for the Pride DASH Bus and your one way ticket to local craft beer.
A portion of beer sales will be donated to our friends at The Imperial Court of Washington D.C., so make sure to drink a few beers for a good cause! Other than that, the whole day is FREE to attend and open to all! Happy Pride!
