Activities


The week of events generally kicks off with a candlelight vigil, followed the next evening by a three-hour party on an excursion along the Detroit River, "Boat Ride." The later part of the week includes a film festival and The Annual Gathering for LGBT Issues, an educational conference. The week commences with a large festival with live entertainment and music is held over the weekend in Detroit's Palmer Park and draws around 20,000 participants. The night of the festival there's an after-party, and on Sunday, the celebration wraps up with a brunch.[1][2]



History


Hotter Than July! began in 1996 as collaboration between numerous LGBT organizations — including the Billionaire Boys Club, Men of Color Motivation Group, Karibu House and Ladies of a Current Affair.[3] The celebration was founded on the seven principals of Kwanzaa.[4] Until 2003, Detroit Black Pride Society co-founder, Johnny Jenkins, served as the event's primary organizer.[5] The event is now produced by the Detroit Black Pride Society and KICK.[1]


In 2013, candidates for Detroit's mayoral race - Krystal Crittendon, Mike Duggan, Fred Durhal, and Jean Vortkamp - attended a special Hotter Than July! community forum.[6] Candidate Benny Napoleon did not attend the forum, but did attend the Palmer Park Festival.[7]
