PHILADELPHIA, PA — AccorHotels’ Sofitel Philadelphia at Rittenhouse Square announced it is celebrating Philadelphia Gay Pride Month all through June, with an array of exciting events and offerings. It is a month-long celebration of empathy, diversity, and equality.

“Sofitel Philadelphia is passionate about supporting our local community,” said Sofitel Philadelphia General Manager Angela Bauer. “We are prouder than ever to celebrate June as Philly Pride Month and fly a giant Philadelphia Pride rainbow flag outside the hotel to publicly show our commitment to inclusiveness. We are thrilled to bring back our pride line-up better and bigger than ever, with our Pride Drag Tea events, and a month-long benefit for the Mazzoni Center and their life-saving work in our community. We invite you to stop by and join us during Pride Month – our doors are always open to all. We are thrilled to be back again and to welcome and celebrate with the entire community.”

The Sofitel Philadelphia will raise a giant Philadelphia-version of the Gay Pride Flag to hang proudly outside the hotel on 17th Street. Inside, neighbors, guests, and visitors are invited to visit the Hall of LGBTQ Flags Exhibition featuring six individual LGBTQ flags flying high above the lobby to celebrate the diversity of the local and hotel LGBTQ community. The flag ceremony is Thursday, June 1, 2023, at 2:15 pm. The raising of the flags coincides with a month-long benefit to support the Mazzoni Center.

Back and bigger than ever, Sofitel Philadelphia and Brittany Lynn’s Drag Mafia Present Sofitel’s Pride Drag Tea featuring the Sofitel famous tea service with an entertaining and drag twist. This year look for performances EVERY single weekend, including June 3, 10, 17, and 24, 2023.  A portion of proceeds from the Drag Tea will go to support Mazzoni Center.
