You’ll have a few chances to gather to celebrate Pride on Capitol Hill this weekend despite a heat wave and a wave of disappointment for one event’s organizers. Here is an updated look at Pride weekend events around Capitol Hill and the Central District as the city’s largest in-person celebrations have been rescheduled for later in the year.

• AIDS Memorial Pathway Dedication: Capitol Hill’s Pride weekend centerpiece will take place in the Capitol Hill Station Plaza with an event celebrating the dedication of the new memorial pathway connecting the gathering space to Cal Anderson Park. From noon to 3 PM Saturday, organizers say “the community is invited to visit the new pathway to sign a large red ribbon memorializing a loved one, share a message, or sign their name to be a part of this special day in Seattle history.” The ribbon will be part of a new AIDS Memorial Quilt. Artists and The AMP team will be available to answer questions and share more information on the new $2.9 million pathway of art “celebrating the lives of loved ones who have passed on throughout the AIDS crisis.”
