GET READY: The 3rd Annual Gender Bender Pride Party is Coming! 🌈✨

 

 

NYC, are you ready to bend the rules? We are back for the third year in a row with our biggest, boldest, and most colorful celebration yet.

At Haus of Toys, we believe Pride is about more than just a parade—it’s about community, radical self-expression, and supporting the queer artists who make our city vibrant. That’s why we’re taking over Dead Letter No. 9 once again for a full day of queer joy, marketplace magic, and high-energy performances.

Where: Dead Letter No. 9, NYC.
