5 Reasons You Absolutely Can't Miss White Party Palm Springs 2016

By -


#1. The location. 
One of the most gorgeous and gay-friendly oases on the planet, Southern California’s sunny Palm Springs boasts glorious April high temps in the upper 80s, loads of fantastic shopping and dining possibilities, tons of stunning and easily accessible nature nearby, and a rich cultural landscape that includes some of the world’s best modernist design and architecture. It’s also literally teeming with excellent accommodation options, from five star hotels to clothing optional resorts to private rentals on Airbnb and VRBO.

#2. The history. 

Since its launch way back in 1989, Jeffrey Sanker’s White Party Palm Springs has become one of the most iconic and popular event in the world, drawing some 30,000 attendees every year. Its musical roster through the years reads like a veritable who’s who of gay pop and dance icons, including Lady Gaga, Jennifer Lopez, Deborah Cox, Jordin Sparks (left), Kesha, Taylor Dayne, Anastasia, Carly Rae Jepsen, Ariana Grande, LeAnn Rimes (below), Carmen Electra and Icona Pop.

#3. The entertainment. 

This year’s White Party Palm Springs lineup is sure to be another crowd pleaser, including international superstar DJ Offer Nissim and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ breakout star Erika Jayne (who’ll be crowned “Queen of White Party”) – plus another huge surprise performer, at Sunday’s world famous Sunset T-Dance. This year the Circus T-Dance has been completely re-surfaced and is being supersized with 2 Ferris Wheels and the biggest and most spectacular fireworks the show has ever had. That event always sells out, so make sure to get your tickets early.

#4. The Music & The Lights, Redesigned & Reimagined.

For 2016, host Jeffrey Sanker has completely rebuilt Saturday night’s magnificent main event from the ground up. The ten-solid-hour dance extravaganza will feature a spectacular illuminated entrance leading to the pulsating massive dance floor, where state of the art lighting and effects will shower the crowd in a kaleidoscope of colors, and mind-blowing custom LED visuals will spring forth from every angle. Add a steady stream of amazing entertainers and performers, and you’ve got one magical and truly unforgettable nonstop night. The whole weekend itself offers the very best DJ lineup around, all united to give you an unforgettable weekend experience.


#5. The boys. 

Seriously, the boys. Just have a look at these incredibly hot guys from last year’s White Party Palm Springs.

An important P.S. Seven parties in 72 hours is a lot for even the fittest of bodies – so to make sure you’re fully charged and ready for Saturday night’s main event, don’t forget to join Saturday morning’s complimentary restorative yoga, led by sexy yogi master Francisco Ramos from Zen Casa. It starts at 10am on Saturday (April 9) on the Convention Center East Lawn behind the Renaissance Hotel. All levels are welcome – and yes, it’s free!

Queer Life in Germany - Learn German from a German Teacher and Native Speaker

In the news recently were a series of articles about how an increasing number of Americans are traveling to Germany for their education, as German universities offer free education to both their citizens and foreign students alike.  That's just the cherry on top when it comes to LGBT visitors to Germany, who have been coming year after year to enjoy all that Germany has to offer the LGBT traveler.  With Germany's progressive acceptance of gay & lesbian life, ranging from its varied nightlife in Berlin to its same-sex domestic partnership laws, it's no wonder it ranks as one of the top European destinations gays & lesbians travel to year after year (source: Community Marketing & Insights, 20th LGBT Tourism & Hospitality Survey) . While someone speaking English in Germany can get by in most places, having at least a foundation in basic German will open up a whole host of life experiences and opportunities simply not available to those not understanding

Budapest Trip - Feb 9-12 2009

My trip to Budapest, although short, has been incredible as it's the first time I've been this far east in Europe.  Budapest, one of the true capitals of Europe, is a fascinating reflection of history and the blends of culture that have crossed this land both over the past few millennia and in recent history. As part of a country which is now part of the European Union and set to adopt the euro shortly, Budapest is an incredible symbol of east meets west, in this case European east meets west, with recent history thrown into the mix.  Having emerged from Communism in 1989, the buildings have only slowly been restored to their original grandeur, with some edifices reflecting their original lustor while others are still black from decades of soot and pollution, with others still displaying facades that have continuously decayed over the years and have yet to be touched. That comparison can also be seen in the attitudes of the people here.  With English being spoken more prevalent
