Atlanta, Georgia. – Today the Atlanta Pride Committee (APC) announced the Official Entertainment Lineup for the 2014 Atlanta Pride Festival Weekend. Performances will take place on the Coca-Cola Stage and the Bud Light Stage throughout the entire weekend, providing plenty of entertainment along with the parade, marketplace, and a full schedule of activities.
Atlanta Pride Committee Executive Director, Buck Cooke, said of the announcement, “We’ve already announced some exciting talent for the festival this year, but we have more tricks up our collective sleeves. The full talent roster includes many Atlanta favorites and tons of local talent on both stages. As always, our Entertainment Committee works hard to find a diverse array of musical styles and genres to ensure that there is something for everyone going on during the Bud Light Stage and Coca-Cola Stage line-ups.”
Cooke added, “We received many requests from all over our LGBTQ community last year and this year for more dance music, so we listened. We are bringing DJ Canvas, DJ Ree de la Vega, and DJ Citizen Jane to the festival to give you what you wanted. In addition to DJs spinning at the festival, we’re also happy to have a show from Fabrefaction Theatre and Legendary Children Atlanta included in the schedule.”
