Raise a (bottomless) glass to Pride, during a show-stopping, gourmet brunch for a good cause. A fabulous take on the iconic Sunday Brunch at Seasons, Pride Brunch at Four Seasons Hotel Washington, DC features beats by the city's preeminent DJs, drag performance entertainment, and activism - all under a true rainbow of colours. Hosted by professional singer/song-writer and RuPaul's Drag Race star Jujubee, guests are guaranteed a spirited and fun afternoon full of pride.

This year the Hotel team is also honoured to announce that Dr. Anthony Fauci will be recognized at the event with the inaugural Worthy Mentor Award for his career dedication to the LGBTQ+ community, including his leadership in research, treatment, and prevention of infectious diseases such as HIV/AIDS.

Created in partnership with Nora Lee by Brandt Ricca, the 2023 Pride Brunch will benefit Worthy Mentoring, a non-profit empowering the LGBTQ+ community in coming out and being out. Worthy Mentoring connects LGBTQ+ mentees with vetted, verified, and trained mentors all through a free mobile iOS and Android App.

“It’s great to see how this event has grown annually and been able to highlight the LGBTQ+ community in a positive and enriching way,” says Brandt Ricca, Owner of events and marketing agency Nora Lee.

On Sunday, June 4, 2023 from 12:00 noon to 1:30 pm, sip bottomless bubbles, Mardi Gras-inspired spirits, Hurricanes and the Southern Decadence cocktails, and New Orleans-inspired bites to the sounds of local DJ Alex Love - all while celebrating the incredible worth of each and everyone present. Post brunch, shake off the excitement at the tea dance from 1:30 to 3:00 pm to DJ Tanner in the atrium next to the festivities. Tickets for the brunch begin at USD 150 with multiple packages available offering special VIP access to the LGBTQ+ community’s biggest stars.

“I am thrilled with how this event has grown over the years,” says General Manager and Regional Vice President Marc Bromley. “Celebrating inclusivity and diversity is incredibly important for our community and also our employees.”

“We are so proud to partner with Four Seasons Hotel Washington, DC to highlight our mission in better supporting and uplifting the diverse LGBTQ+ community,” says Michael Edmonson, Jr. Co-Founder and CEO of Worthy Mentoring. “We’ve created the free Worthy Mentoring App so that all individuals within our community who are struggling to find their place and identity never again have to go through that journey alone.
