Bisbee Pride began in 2004 by a small group of LGBT friends. From a small local Pride Celebration Bisbee Pride has grown into a year-round community service focused non-profit organization. We enjoy strong support from the local community. In fact, Bisbee was the first municipality in Arizona to pass a Civil Union Ordinance before Marriage Equality became law.

Bisbee Pride, Inc. is a 501c (3) nonprofit organization committed to the goals of wellness, education, human rights and acceptance within the LGBTQ and greater Cochise County Community.

MADONNA. In her college years, she discovered what DRAG was about thanks to RU PAUL!!!! She went to school in AZ, where she graduated from UofA at the ELER College of Management. Once she was done in college, she moved to CALIFORNIA to pursue her artistic and music business career. WEST HOLLYWOOD became her new town! Performing today, we have her on the main stage of Bisbee PRIDE 2022. Let’s welcome EVELYN VICHI!

Alandra D Rains

Alandra D Rains


Hello my name is Alandra D Rains and I come from Sierra Vista, AZ. I lived in Sierra Vista for 24 years and originally came from NYC. I've been doing the art of Female Impersonation for about 12 years now. I love the art of drag and all its forms. It's a great way to express yourself and get others involved and enjoy your energy on stage. Performing has always been a therapeutic process for me. It has helped me on and off stage for a lot of different reasons. You can find me on social media under steven pascalli-thomas. I'm also married to my wonderful husband and have 3 fur babies to call our own. I hope you enjoyed reading a little bit about me. See you at PRIDE where you can meet me in person walking around. So if you see me be sure to say hi.

See you soon

Vera Del Mar

Vera Del Mar


I'm Richard Barajas the creator of the drag persona known as the Fabulous Vera DelMar, “Tucson’s Oldest Living Drag Queen”. I came into drag late in life and have been doing it now for seventeen years. I am currently a resident of Tucson, Arizona, in the United States of America.
My drag style is classic drag, and total female impersonation. I utilize lip synchronization during my performances. The music I use when I perform can be from the 1960’s all the way through the current period. In my performances I don’t do any somersaults, cartwheels, death drops, or any type of gymnastics on stage. I am a “lady” performer after all and choose to portray one on stage. My favorite artist whose music I enjoy performing to is the late Dusty Springfield. I also enjoy imitating Cher, Tina Turner, and Linda Ronstadt. My repertoire consists mostly of the music of artists such like Nancy Sinatra, Bette Midler, Celine Dion, Nancy Wilson, Reba MacIntire. I have experience performing in San Francisco, California, Silver City, New Mexico, Rapid City, South Dakota, and throughout Arizona such as Bisbee, Douglas, Casa Grande, Lake Havasu, Payson, Flagstaff, Prescott, Sierra Vista, and Ajo.

Aniya Kinsley

Aniya Kinsley


Since 2011 when I saw RuPaul on the tv screen for the first time I always knew I had a craving for drag.

I used to wear my mom’s lipstick and prance around the living room in her 1-inch kitten heels lip-syncing to Lady Gaga all while pretending to be in front of a large crowd at a popping nightclub. Growing up I always loved music, fashion, and gender-bending art. Aniya Kinsley showcases all of that and more. I am so proud of the person I have become, and I can’t wait for the world to meet Aniya.

Han & Callie

Han & Callie


Han and Callie are local performers based in Tucson, AZ. While they have each individually pursued the art of sign language interpretation over decades as solo artists, fate would lead them to meet at a Pride event, and the smitten couple married in February of 2020. Now they are collaborating to take on the stage as a dynamic duo performing uniquely choreographed pieces in ASL.

GayC/DC


GAYC/DC: THE WORLD’S FIRST AND ONLY
ALL-GAY TRIBUTE TO THE MUSIC OF AC/DC!

Founded in 2013 by Chris Freeman (bass player from iconic queer punk band Pansy Division), the idea for GayC/DC came from bouncing around names for more tribute bands with gay members after he’d been playing with the Gay Gay’s (gay tribute to the Go Go’s) for more than a decade. Once the Gay Gay’s went on hiatus, Freeman moved forward with forming a band that could be as good as AC/DC.
