An annual celebration of queer performance and culture, there was a time Midsumma was one of the only opportunities for the city to quench its addiction to culture over the sleepy summer. Now hemmed in closely with SummerSalt and White Night, Midsumma offers up a heady mix of live performance, public events, talks and parties. This year's program is especially cabaret-heavy, but its eclectic mix of visual art, live music, and cutting-edge performance work keeps Midsumma’s summer festival crown firmly in place.
