Like most fests last year, Post Street’s Jubilee Wellness Festival was sidelined due to the pandemic. However, the Jubilee’s similarity to most festivals ends there. The free, outdoor event in San Jose’s recently defined Qmunity District (aka Post Street) dedicates itself to health and wellness in the South Bay’s LGBTQ+ community, providing free dental exams, rapid STI testing, on-site COVID vaccinations and many more services—alongside musicians, dancers, DJs, performers and games. There will be drag, there will be drinks, good times will be had and—before anyone asks—yes, the Moby Dick ride is back.


Jubilee Wellness Fest
Sat, 4pm, Free

Pride may have started as a riot, but Jo’s Comedy & Bangou Productions are hoping for more of a laugh riot this year. Presented both online and in person at the Mexican Heritage Plaza, “Pride & Joy” is a queer comedy event that brings together some of the Bay’s funniest LGBTQI & POC comedians, all while plying you with tacos (not available online). Hosted by CYTHIAINPUBLIC, the event promises to include a “Rainbow Explosion,” and features sets by Tammy Tealove, Ivy Vasquez, Kyle From Work, and headliner Marcus Williams, along with music from DJ Asthmatc.
