The 15-hour event will start at 10 am GMT, and celebrate the depth of LGBTQIA+ talent in the global dance music scene, in partnership with HE.SHE.THEY. — a queer run collective comprising of a record label, fashion label, and international events company with the focus on diversity and inclusion.

“Bringing you DJ sets from Paris to London, from Madrid to Chicago, we are proud to pay respect to the queer communities that laid the foundation of electronic dance music,” says Heiko Hoffmann, Vice President, Artist & Community Relations at Beatport.

All the talent playing comes from the LGBTQIA+ community with big international names such as Maya Jane Coles, Catz ‘N Dogz, Lauren Flax, and Kiddy Smile taking part alongside up and coming talent like Sippin’ T, Syreeta and Wax Wings as well as living legends such as DJ Paulette.

“I’m really proud to be part of a stream that platforms and celebrates, the rich talent and uncompromised self-expression of our LGBTQIA+ family and its intersections, especially for such an important set of charitable causes,” says Maya Jane Coles about her upcoming online performance.

Following a series of successful fundraisers, which amassed millions of views and raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for COVID-19 relief efforts, our Pride 2020 livestream will raise funds for four charities via a GoFundMe: Black Lives Matter, Stonewall, Mermaids, and the Sylvia Rivera Law Project.

As well as providing a 15-hour electronic music extravaganza, Beatport will provide track IDs as songs are played on Twitch and Beatport.com, so fans can purchase music live in real-time.
