The Castro Street Fair is coming and it’s time to get your costumes out! Get dressed up for this giant costume party and come celebrate with stages of living entertainment, art, food, performances and live DJs. The Castro Street Fair was originally started by the late gay rights activist Harvey Milk in 1974. At the time businesses in the neighborhood were not super keen on LGBT folk in their neighborhood...until the first Castro Street Fair, when they realized they made more money on that one day than any other day in the year, and decided maybe these new people weren’t so bad after all. It was a long and often painful journey but the Castro is now one of the most well-known gayborhoods in the world. This event starts at 11 a.m. and runs until 6! Grab hostel friends to go celebrate as a group!
