Capital Pride, Ottawa’s annual 10-day celebration of the city’s LGBTTQ community, kicks off today. Opening night offers plenty of must-attend events, including Repo! The Genetic Drag Show at Club Saw ($10) and an awards gala that acknowledges leadership in the Ottawa-Gatineau area LGBTTQ community at ARC Hotel (free admission). Pride Week continues until Aug. 26, culminating in a massive parade on the last day of the festival.
