Today: The Debut of Kardi Cheyenne!

Cumberland Pride is excited to welcome Kardi Cheyenne to the stage for her very first drag performance!

At just 18 years old, Kardi is beginning her drag journey right here in her hometown of Amherst. Before moving to the city and taking on bigger stages, she wanted her debut performance to be in a place that feels familiar, surrounded by the community that has supported her along the way.

There's something special about seeing a performer take the stage for the very first time, and we're honoured that Kardi has chosen Cumberland Pride for this milestone moment.

Join us today to cheer her on, celebrate local talent, and help give Kardi Cheyenne a debut she'll never forget.

See you at the Amherst Stadium - today, right now!

The Pride Market, Parade, community booths, and other scheduled activities will all take place inside, so the celebration is still on—just under a roof!

We look forward to welcoming everyone for a day of community, connection, and Pride. Come out, stay dry, and celebrate with us.
