As with so many events this year, the current pandemic has caused the cancellation of the Official 2020 Vallarta Pride Week celebrations scheduled to take place beginning Thursday, May 21st, 2020. With so many in the Vallarta LGBTQ nightlife community experiencing financial hardships because of bar and nightclub closures in light of the COVID19 pandemic, we’re taking Vallarta Pride into your living rooms to raise money for over 150 nightlife workers in need. “PV STRONG” is a Vallarta Pride event happening in lieu of originally planned 2020 events that have been cancelled.
Our first campaign will benefit the staffs of La Noche, Reinas, Garbo, Mantamar, Blondies, Los Otros Blondies, WET, The Top, Margarita Bar, and Mr Flamingos. All funds will be given to the employees of those establishments directly.
