brOWNout 2026 south asian stage at Pride Toronto
Sat, June 27, 2-5pm, Mill St. Wellesley Stage (across from Wellesley TTC station)
It’s been 15 years since the first brOWN//out & We Won’t Stop! As the “south asian”* community stage, brOWN//out celebrates the magnificent multiplicity of our communities, and is a space for singers, dancers, drag and burlesque artists, DJs and more. With a mix of first time and established artists, we’ve been honoured to present artists like Sushmita, Vivek Shraya, Zaiba Baig, ROSINA, D!XON, BOIBND, Optimal Tease, and many more.
*the term “south asian” is used strategically: there is no way to adequately represent all the complexities of identities connected to “South Asia,” which can include diasporic, Nepali, Tamil, Indo-Caribbean, brown, Fijian, Maldivian, mixed-race, Pakistani, and more.
