EQHP Walking Tour – Baths & Bars

July 8, 2023 @ 11:00 am 12:30 pm MDT

Join us for a special tour focused on Edmonton’s 2SLGBTQ+ community bars and bathhouses. Our tour begins at the location of the infamous 1981 police raid of the Pisces Health Spa, which resulted in the largest mass arrest in Alberta’s history! The raid had the unintended effect of launching Michael Phair’s legendary career of activism, including becoming the first openly gay politician in Alberta’s history and a 15-year run on Edmonton’s city council.

This tour will be hosted by Michael Phair and Rob Browatzke.

We are pleased to be able to provide ASL interpretation for this walking tour. Please notify us at least one week in advance when you register.

The 2023 Spring/Summer EQHP Walking Tour Series is made possible thanks to funding and support provided by the MacEwan Centre for Sexual and Gender Diversity, Edmonton Downtown Business Association, and the City of Edmonton.

Event Listing & Graphics Disclaimer

PrideEdmonton.ca is a free, unfunded, volunteer-run community listing platform. We do not generate revenue from our services and do not receive funding or grants from community or government sources. All events and accompanying graphics are submitted by independent organizers.

Many organizers operate with little or no budget and may use a variety of tools—including AI-assisted design—to create their materials. PrideEdmonton.ca does not create, edit, review, or regulate submitted graphics, nor do we assess how they are produced.

Our focus is on ensuring broad visibility of the many Pride events happening across the region. Showcasing this diversity of programming helps build awareness, strengthen community connection, and foster greater understanding and acceptance. Responsibility for all submitted content rests solely with the event organizers.
