Orlando Pride 2026: a three-night takeover
Pride weekend gets the biggest block of the year. Friday, October 16 kicks off with ARREBATO, a Latin-circuit fusion party with Colombia’s Jerac going back-to-back with Madrid/Ibiza favorite Leo Blanco. Saturday, October 17 — the same day as the Come Out With Pride parade and festival at Lake Eola — DJ Nitro and Billboard-charting remixer Dani Brasil headline the main Orlando Pride Party. Erik Vilar, who has played in more than 26 countries, closes the weekend on Sunday, October 18. Three nights, five international DJs, one dance floor two blocks from the parade route.
EDM WEEKND, HYDRO WKND & more themed takeovers
November brings EDM WEEKND, a four-night electronic takeover (November 5–8) featuring Dickerman, Mike Atabey, J Warren, and Greece’s GSP of XLSIOR Mykonos fame. HYDRO WKND parties splash down throughout the year with Cesar Hernandz, Nick Stracener, Juka, and San Juan’s Edwood — a resident of the Hydro Caribbean Festival itself. Add the Y2K throwback party, a space-mission birthday blowout, Halloween with Billboard remixer Jesús Montañez, the Anthem Xmas Jingle Ball, and BLACKOUT NYE with Brazil’s Liza Rodriguez to count down to 2027.
