You don’t need three strikes to be OUT AT THE BALLPARK! Silicon Valley Pride’s official Pre-Pride event is a free, family-friendly evening featuring entertainment of Giants proportions no matter what team you play for. Brazilian percussion and dance ensemble Bloco do Sol San Jose is sure to excite eyes and ears, while the iconic CHEER SF—the world’s first LGBTQ-identified cheerleading team—will travel down from the peninsula to turn the loud-and-proud energy up to eleven. The event also includes a screening of musical favorite Mamma Mia!, and pride-goers are encouraged to bring a blanket to lay out on the field.
