Prepare for an electrifying evening as LGBTQ+ icons and their unwavering allies converge in Chicago for the highly anticipated "Victory at the DNC" event, hosted by the LGBTQ+ Victory Institute. This celebration is more than just a gathering; it’s a testament to the trailblazing progress and indomitable spirit of the LGBTQ+ community within the Democratic Party.


This year’s DNC event is set to be star-studded, with headliners like **Pete Buttigieg**, the first openly gay presidential candidate; **Zachary Quinto**, the acclaimed actor known for his advocacy; **Dana Goldberg**, the comedian with a razor-sharp wit; **Wilson Cruz**, the actor and activist who continues to break barriers; and **Annise Parker**, former Houston mayor and current President & CEO of the LGBTQ+ Victory Institute. Together, they’ll be joined by an impressive lineup of governors, members of Congress, state legislators, and numerous state and local elected officials from across the nation.

The event is a celebration of several historic milestones: the unprecedented level of LGBTQ+ representation among DNC delegates, the adoption of the most pro-equality platform in the party’s history, and the significant accomplishments of LGBTQ+ elected leaders who continue to champion equality and justice.
