We're bursting with Pride this June, and you're invited to join the party! Whether you're looking for fierce cabaret, creative workshops, family fun or the secrets behind a killer drag look, we've got something to make you feel fabulous.

Start with a Bang: The PHWOAR Next Door
Friday 6 June, 7:30pm | Ages 18+
We're kicking off Pride month with an explosion of camp, cabaret and charisma. The PHWOAR Next Door returns with a glittering lineup of drag darlings, burlesque babes, and outrageous comedy. Expect lip-syncs, striptease, and sass from stars like Bolly Ditz Dolly, Mild Peril, Fae Wildfyre and more. It’s queer cabaret at its finest – loud, proud, and gloriously subversive.

Get Creative at Our FREE Drop-In Pride Art Workshop
Saturday 7 June, 11:00am | For children in School Years 1–6
We’re putting the art in heart at this colourful workshop for younger Pride-goers. Kids can drop in and create their own personalised Pride bookmark that celebrates exactly who they are. It's a fun, safe space for LGBTQIA+ children and allies to get creative and express themselves. (Parents, this is a drop-off session – go grab a coffee and we’ll take it from here!)

Meet Mama G in The Magic Bookmark
Saturday 7 June, 2:30pm | Ages 4+
Everyone’s favourite panto dame is back! Mama G, star of Britain’s Got Talent, brings her storytelling sparkle to a magical adventure about the power of reading and being true to yourself. With puppetry, songs, laughs, and a very special bookmark, it’s a joyful show the whole family will love.

Slay the Day: The Oxford Drag Collective presents: The Pride Drag Makeup Class
Saturday 14 June, 10:30am | Ages 18+
Ever wanted to beat your face like a queen or contour with the confidence of a king? Now’s your chance! Join Cairo Iman Ali (Mother of the Oxford drag scene) and Drag King extraordinaire Dr Acula for a hands-on workshop covering everything from glam to everyday fabulous. Whether you're drag-curious or a makeup enthusiast, this inclusive session will leave you glowing inside and out.

So grab your glitter, bring your boldest self, and join us at Cornerstone this Pride Month – because there’s no better time to celebrate love, identity, and the joy of being you.

Everyone’s welcome, and we mean everyone allies or members of the LGBTQIA+ community!
