Well, it was only a matter of time before a major corporation descended upon our beloved Oak Lawn neighborhood. Yet here we are. Hot off its internet-breaking McNugget Caviar promotion back in February, the McDonald’s fast food chain quietly began updating the vacant Hamburger Mary’s space for a limited-time pop-up drag restaurant called, appropriately enough, Hamburglar Mary’s. Doors open tonight […]
Most of the biggest summer songs ever written have been about “keeping boyfriends warm at night,” “waxing down our surfboards” and “getting down on our knees pretending to pray.” Damn, Beach Boys lyrics sure sound pretty gay out of context. But we’re here today to argue that as much as we love California, perhaps the queerest destination of all this […]
Ready to party at one of the oldest places on the planet? Well, maybe not exactly, but the Midnight in Eden masquerade party this weekend promises plenty of earthly delights. And drag! It’s all going down at the annual North Texas LGBTQ Chamber of Commerce fundraiser for its LGBTQ Chamber of Commerce Foundation & Scholarship Fund. The party features the […]

This year’s Vallarta Pride celebration lasts from Sunday, May 17 until Sunday, May […]

Today, tickets go on sale for the official Black Tie Dinner Kickoff Party on Wednesday, May 6 at Park Place Motorcars. […]
One sip of whiskey is all it takes to be transported into a cozy, romantic setting. Preferably with a half-naked, sexy man by your side ready to share your passion for the dark spirits. That’s likely not exactly what you’ll find at Whiskey Riot 2026, but more than 150 different whiskies sure sounds like an intoxicating alternative. Whether you like […]
Two weeks ago, she did Gaga. Two weeks before that, she did the entire crew aboard Vacaya‘s most recent cruise ship. Yes, Liquor Mini‘s one busy drag diva. Also well-known in Dallas’s best back alleys, under-$10 Chinese buffets and T.J. Maxx clearance sales, the artist sometimes known as Danny Lee Cabrera outside of Spanx does a lot for queer Dallas.

We write about a lot of Pride events all over the world here at He Said Dallas. But sometimes a passion for parties and parades can celebrate being proud about something besides the LGBTQ+ community. Take Fiesta San Antonio, for instance. This 10-day festival celebrates everything we love so much about the Alamo City. Fiesta highlights so much of the […]
You had us at Willy, Mr. Wonka. It’s time for a sugar-coated celebration with Legacy Cares for their upcoming Candy Land fundraiser on April 25. We know, it’s early to start thinking about a party more than two months away, but if you want to snag early-bird pricing on this colorful evening, you have until February 28 to save a […]
