Pride Month Ideas for Work, Hosted Live
Pride, but make it dazzling! Want the celebration handled for you? Ideas 1 through 5 are my shows. I host every one live on your video call with Broadway-trained vocals, HR-friendly humor, and a shoutout for every name in the chat. You send the calendar invite. I bring the rainbow sequins. Wigs optional. Fun mandatory.
1. Drag Queen Bingo for Pride
$900 · 60 minutes · 50 players included, more welcome
The easiest yes on this list. A live opening number, 4+ rounds of online bingo, your team's song requests, and a shoutout for every name in the chat. Great for mixed crowds and first-time drag fans. Daubers not required.
2. Pride Trivia
$1,000 · 60 minutes · 50 players included, more welcome
The June edition of Drag Queen Trivia. Three rounds on Pride history, queer pop culture, and LGBTQ+ icons, with a leaderboard between rounds. Everyone plays on their own device, and team scoring is available on request. Your team competes, laughs, and logs off knowing more than they did at lunch.

Trivia crowd outside June? Drag Queen Trivia runs year-round.
3. Drag Queen Bingo & Trivia Party
$1,000 · 60 minutes · 50 players included, more welcome
Can't pick? One hour with a live opener, 2 rounds of bingo, and a round of trivia. Half your team wants prizes. Half wants to show off what they know. This one keeps both camps happy.
4. Express Drag Bingo or Trivia
$500 · 30 minutes · up to 100 players
Built for a lunch slot or the top of an all-hands. Three bingo games or two trivia rounds, packed into 30 radiant minutes.
5. Custom Pride Event
$1,500+ · 60+ minutes
For the big swing: a company-wide Pride kickoff, an International Drag Day party, or trivia written around a theme you choose. Custom is the only show where I build custom trivia themes. Tell me the dream and I make it dazzle.
Groups over 50 add $50 per additional 25 people. All prices include tax. Want the whole lineup in one spot? See every corporate Pride Month event →
ERG Event Ideas You Can Run In-House
Not every Pride moment needs a host. Your ERG can run these seven on its own. Pair one or two with a hosted show and June feels full.
6. Pride History Lunch-and-Learn
Pick one moment, like the Stonewall Uprising of June 1969, and give it 30 minutes. An employee volunteer or an invited speaker can lead it.
7. Film or Documentary Watch Party
Choose an LGBTQ+ film or documentary. Watch together or on your own time, then meet for a short discussion.
8. Employee Story Panel
Invite LGBTQ+ employees and allies to share their experience. Only people who want to speak should speak. Voluntary keeps it real.
9. Allyship Workshop
Bring in a trained facilitator for practical skills: pronouns, inclusive language, and how to speak up when something feels off.
10. Giving Campaign
Pick an LGBTQ+ nonprofit and run a donation drive through June. Ask leadership about a company match.
11. Pride Book Club
Choose a book by an LGBTQ+ author in May. Meet in June to talk about it, cameras optional.
12. Show Up Together at Local Pride
Hybrid team? March or volunteer as a group at a local Pride event. Remote teammates can join a virtual meetup the same week so nobody misses out.
How Do You Plan a Pride Month Event at Work?
Book Hosted Shows 4 to 8 Weeks Ahead
June is the one season that fills early. Most other dates book close to the event. Check open dates →
Pick a Time That Works Across Time Zones
Global ERG? Evening in Europe, lunch on the East Coast, morning coffee on the West Coast? Done it. In heels.
Invite Allies by Name
Say in the invite that everyone is welcome. Allies who feel invited show up. Co-hosting with another ERG reaches even more people.
Have Prizes Ready
For bingo or trivia, you bring the prizes: gift cards, extra PTO hours, company swag, or bragging rights. I announce every winner like it's a Tony Award.
