Saturday, October 2 will be Gay Day at Disneyland, which culminates with KINGDOM, presented by LAS VEGAS, the weekend's signature dance party with music from renowned DJ Kimberly S, and special performances by Jenifer Lewis, reprising her show stopper from The Princess and the Frog, "Dig a Little Deeper."

Both days in the parks will feature gatherings only available over Gay Days weekend, including scavenger hunts, a group photo, a lesbian ice cream social, a single riders gathering and many more events targeted to families, youth, bears, couples and Mouseketeers of every ilk. There will also be a young people's luncheon sponsored by The Trevor Project, the nation's only 24 hour suicide prevention hotline for GLBT youth.

Other events of the weekend include free screenings at the Gay Days Entertainment Center (located inside the Trillium Room of Disney's Grand Californian Hotel), and a Gay Days Pin Trading event on Sunday at the Gay Days Info Center (also located inside the Trillium Room of Disney's Grand Californian Hotel).

Gay Days Anaheim is a "mix-in" with the park's other weekend guests, but gays and lesbians are encouraged to wear red shirts in order to identify each other and to show strong numbers. Official T-shirts are available at the official Gay Days at Disneyland website. Note: Gay Days Anaheim is NOT a Disney-sponsored event so Disney will not have any information regarding the "unofficial" happening.

Sponsors for the event include Undergear, Absolut Vodka, Howard Johnson Anaheim, The Red Lion Anaheim, The Anabella Hotel, Knott's Berry Farm, Las Vegas and the Anaheim/Orange Country Visitor and Convention Bureau. Media sponsors are Gay.com, Frontiers, PIX, Odyssey Hawaii, Rage, and Q Vegas.
