Very Pride is crossing coasts for the first time ever — and we’re landing loud. From the streets of Chicago to the coast of California, we’re bringing queer joy, deep grooves, and the magic of chosen family to Wicked West SD. Friday, July 18 Wicked West SD 6 p.m. – 1:30 a.m. This isn’t your average Pride party. This is house music heaven, queer excellence, and full-on summer energy rolled into one unforgettable night. Lineup: DERRICK CARTER One of the founding fathers of Chicago house, Derrick needs no introduction—but we’ll give him one anyway. His sets are legendary: funky, fearless, and filled with pure soul. From underground basements to international stages, he keeps dancefloors locked in the groove and lifted by joy. This is a rare West Coast appearance — don’t miss it. KARSTEN SOLLORS Commanding, hypnotic, and undeniably sexy. Karsten’s sound is equal parts underground heat and refined energy — a slow build to euphoria with every set. He knows how to move a room and create space for bodies to release, connect, and transcend. ALEXIS TUCCI A walking disco ball and high priestess of funk. Alexis blends classic house, deep grooves, and glitter-drenched energy in a way that feels like a spiritual release. Expect to twirl, sweat, and maybe cry. If liberation had a soundtrack, she’d be spinning it. NIC JERICHO Moody, percussive, and intensely emotional. Nic curates soundscapes that feel cinematic—pulling you into a darker, richer frequency of house. Think basement rave meets art film. Deep feels, no filler. Hosted by: Khloe Couleé · Miss Toto · Brenna Jordan · Matt Palmer · Chichi Fuera · Maddy Mokes · Stephen Clarke Come early, stay late, and bring your look. The first West Coast edition of Very Pride is a moment — and you’re invited. VeryPride on Instagram

Body Rock Dance Competition, the Iconic International Dance Event, is celebrating its 25th year of production. Beginning in the year 2000, BODY ROCK has grown to a huge platform for aspiring dancers in the Global Dance Community. With its humble beginnings on a gym floor in San Diego, our passion for dance and hip hop came from the spread of dance teams up and down California. We presented one of the first dance competitions to showcase street dance crews and professional choreography teams and the rest was history! With the creation of Youtube in the mid 2000’s, our show went viral and transformed the accessibility of dance crew videos and changed how dancers were viewed in the mainstream media. We continue to influence the atmosphere of local dance creating outlets for youth, maintaining a safe and inclusive staff, and promoting authentic community relationships. We not only helped to move our dance community forward, but created a path for the next generation of dancers. Our legacy includes groups and choreographers such as the Jabbawockeez, Keone & Mari Madrid, Kyle Hanagami, The Kinjaz and Tessandra Chavez. Some crews like Korea’s “Just Jerk” have also become Viral on Youtube and TikTok with over millions of views. Annually, our show draws a crowd of +2000 people and our participants now include groups from Mexico, Germany, New Zealand, China, Australia, Korea, Russia, the Philippines and Japan! We have also expanded and have qualifier shows in Asia and Latin America. Witness the culmination of the cultures, stories, and dances of crews from all over the world! 25+ teams will perform June 29, 2025. The event starts @ 6 p.m. and ends at 9 p.m. *Due to the adult language and loud volume of some music, we do not recommend this show for small children/ infants. - All tickets are assigned seating - All tickets are non-refundable This event will sell out!!
