Pink Loeries to turn 10 in Knysna
The Pink Loeries will be celebrating its 10th anniversary with a Mardi Gras at Knysna, to be held between 27 April and 2 May 2010. Organisers say that Yes boys, boys and wannabe boys, lipstick lesbians and all who are not afraid of homosexuals can celebrate their sexuality, sexual freedom, culture, and constitutional right.
The great Kempinski Hotels of the world will host an on-invitation-only cocktail party, the world-famous Jean-Paul Gaultier will be one of the sponsors.
Juan, the surname-less creator, said: "We will have awesome parties again, the Pink party, the traditional "Gat Party” and the "After Parade Party" and, this year, even a few new more risqué parties (see website for details), great competitions, the Mr Mardi Gras SA, the Miss Mardi Gras
SA and the Me Mardi Gras Drag competitions, Mr. Underwear SA, the Best Costume in the parade (Zanzibar will sponsor another Pink Vuka scooter again) and many more.
Pink Soccer
DJ Sam, the Pink Loerie favourite, will be playing at Zanzibar again on three nights. Other entertainment will be the SA Drag Troupe show, a live theatre performance, the fabulous Holly and the Woods and, not to forget, the first ever Pink Soccer Challenge, the famous street parade and the High Heel Street Mile. Miss Dainti Delicia will celebrating 10 years with us too. And, on the art scene, Knysna Fine Art will present: Mike Vlok ceramics and DP Ferreira (floral artist god) to well-known Vietnamese photographer, Duy Vo Lap with cutting-edge infrared erotic male photography.
The VIP guest for 2010 will be Luiz de Barros, owner of the largest and most upmarket gay-lifestyle portal in SA - www.mambaonline.com . Mr. Gay South Africa 2009, Charl van Den Berg will also be with us to party.
Swimwear and underwear
Our VIP Designer of the Year: Peter Bondesio will be showing a range during the Mr Mardi Gras SA 2010 event. Wilco Stemmet, co-owner and designer of Bone Wear will be showing his latest range of swimwear and underwear.
Get the friends together; get the outfits, the hats, the dancing shoes, the feathers and whatever else you would need to make this 10th Loerie another memorable one. Book the accommodation with Knysna Tourism on +27 (0)44 382 5510 and keep an eye out for great specials on flights and special packages from people such as our major sponsor, Wilco van Eeden, Club Travel Honeydew in Joburg.
And this year there will once again be an all-girls venue with lots of fun parties and happenings and, back by popular demand, the Beyond Eden Woman's Day Event.
