SF Pride 2019: Generations of Resistance

 

 
I cannot tell you how honored I was to have been asked to do this event. As the worlds largest PRIDE celebration. And one of the worlds largest festivals. This event was the mother of all events that I have ever dreamed of. SF PRIDE. The month prior I did the corporate registration desk for this event. We were able to secure nearly 300 Comcast NBCUniversal employees for this event. Our participants were including those from our sister companies, Comcast Spotlight, Comcast Innovation Center, NBC News, Bay Area, NBC Sports Bay Area, and Telemundo 48.

The day of the event we set up our Space at the main Stage. We were to be at the Main Stage because Comcast Xfinity hosted a meet & greet with this year’s SF Pride Celebrity Grand Marshals: The cast of the popular Starz original series, VIDAVida. Our booth was a photo booth, where fans could have their picture taken with the cast members.This was a huge attraction at Pride we had a line at our booth all day. Waiting for the cast members to arrive.
Right after the parade ended, Mishel Prada (Emma), Ser Anzoategui (Eddy), Roberta Colindrez (Nico), Chelsea Rendon (Mari), Adrián González (Rudy) and Tonatiuh Elizarraraz (Marcos)

  

Our culture loves giveaways. So we had Pride colored rose crowns, towels, Vida <3 Pride fans, Rainbow beads, Pride flags, Vida Pride towels, and Sunglasses. We also had a phone charging station for the community. All of this was set up before the festival started.
 
 
Here is our Parade Float.
Here are the highlights of the festival. So beautiful and colorful. I love taking photos at festivals.
