Probe's Pride Party

Probe's Pride Party

Celebrate how far we’ve come. Fight for how far we’ll go.

Our fight is far from over.

Rest is not an option while any of us still face oppression, fear, or the denial of our right to exist based on who we are and who we love.

But Pride has always carried both resistance and celebration. The strength to continue comes from within ourselves, from the communities we build, and from remembering the generations who pushed forward before us. Every right won, every barrier broken, every moment of visibility and acceptance was carved out by those who refused to disappear.

Now we gather in that legacy.

We gather because being seen is worth celebrating. Because chosen family is worth celebrating. Because the freedom to express ourselves fully, loudly, beautifully, and without shame is worth celebrating.

Join us during Ottawa’s Capital Pride weekend as Probe overflows with queer joy, kink, expression, and community. Celebrate. Fill the space with colour, creativity, pleasure, and pride. Dress boldly, love loudly, dance, play, love, and take up space.

This night is for everyone who has found the strength to stand tall as themselves, and everyone reaching out a hand to pull the next person up beside them.

This night is for Pride.

At Probe, inclusivity is at the heart of everything we do. We welcome all individuals of all sexual orientations, genders, and identities. Our aim is to create an environment where everyone feels respected, valued, and free to express themselves authentically. Our venue is wheelchair accessible, with an elevator available. Our goal is to provide an accessible, inclusive space. If you have any questions or have specific accommodation requests, please reach out to us.

A membership is required to attend our play parties. If you haven't secured your membership yet, be sure to do so before the event! You can sign up for your membership on our site here or can be purchased at the door.

Please note, our entry door will be locked after 10PM for the safety of our members and staff.

Tickets are available on a sliding scale to promote inclusivity and accessibility. We offer limited “supported” and “sustain” tickets at a lower price for community members who might otherwise be unable to attend. Please choose the ticket price that makes this event accessible to you. If you’d like to support event accessibility, consider purchasing a “generous” or “benevolent” ticket, which helps subsidize lower-price options. All ticket types provide the same access to the event.

A variety of snacks and non-alcoholic drinks will be available all night to keep you refreshed and energized. Please note that bringing alcohol is not allowed.

Our dedicated Dungeon Monitors (DMs) will be present throughout the venue, attentively supervising the play areas and offering assistance to ensure everyone's safety.
