Celebrate Pride with purpose by planning events that reflect the resilience, love, history, and continued advocacy of the LGBTQIA+ community. Observed each June to honor the 1969 Stonewall Uprising, Pride Month is a time to recognize the community’s invaluable contributions to culture, art, politics, and society. Whether you’re organizing campus activities or corporate events, this is a powerful opportunity to show support, engage guests, and uplift LGBTQIA+ voices.
Neon Entertainment is proud to offer a wide range of Pride-focused events and programming designed to experience, engage, and entertain. From hilarious stand-up comedy to thought-provoking spoken word and hands-on DIY fun, here are some top picks to help you celebrate Pride on campus.

Spoken Word Artist Clementine von Radics: Spoken Word Poet and Storyteller
With over 10 million online views and three published poetry collections, Clementine von Radics is a celebrated spoken word artist whose work is as powerful as it is poetic. Their performances explore queerness, love, loss, and survival, often drawing from their own experiences as a nonbinary person. Clementine has toured in 49 states and brings both presence and perspective to every performance and workshop.
Spoken Word Artist Gabriel Ramirez: Queer Afro-Latinx Poet and Activist
Gabriel Ramirez’s spoken word performances are deeply moving and socially conscious. A seasoned performer who has taken the stage at Lincoln Center, the United Nations, and the Apollo Theatre, Gabriel uses poetry to highlight mental health, masculinity, self-love, and the Afro-Latinx experience. In addition to performances, Gabriel offers a dynamic workshop titled I Am Here: Affirmation as a Form of Resistance, which provides participants with space to reclaim their stories and power through writing, conversation, and healing.
Pride Game Shows
Turn up the energy with our high-impact Pride Trivia game. This fast-paced event covers everything from LGBTQIA+ history to pop culture and features four interactive rounds. Every audience member plays for a chance to win up to $200 in cash prizes. Hosted by professional comedians, this event is both laugh-out-loud funny and informative.
Your favorite bingo game gets a colorful twist with Pride Bingo. Instead of calling out numbers, participants listen to music from iconic LGBTQIA+ artists and identify songs and shows from their Pride-themed bingo cards. With artists like Sam Smith, Elton John, and Lady Gaga on the playlist, this is a dance-worthy, prize-filled experience that celebrates music and identity. Each game includes $200 in cash prizes and is hosted by one of our professional comedian MCs.
