Only a month after the largest San Diego Pride in history, Hillcrest will come alive once again for its annual CityFest event on August 11.

This enormous event will take over the heart of the neighborhood with plenty of things to do including arts, crafts, and food.

There was a lo to cover this week in the news. Locally it came to light that some death threats had been made against San Diego Pride, but police were able to apprehend the suspect who they also linked to several bank robberies. 

A popular Chicago drag queen died unexpectedly in the hospital while recovering from a car crash. 

SDPIX celebrates 17 years of publishing this Saturday and Pedro Lopez just won bottle service for six at the event. 

Congratulations to him and those he wishes to bring along at Rich's Nightclub.

His entourage will be among the many revelers who will fill the nightclub for a night of music, dance and eye-popping entertainment. 

A new study published in the Journal of Ethnic and Racial Studies has found that Muslim LGBT individuals who are seeking asylum in Germany are more likely to be successful if they were born male, middle to upper class, and act flamboyantly. 

Turning 17 is a special milestone, and this week SDPIX is celebrating that birthday with a special party at Rich's. Developed in 2002 by Johnathan Hale, SDPIX is the quintessential Hillcrest event guide that not only features the best parties and events but also gives the community a hard copy keepsake of fun nights out with friends and family.
