“We are singing and dancing right here on their front lawn, misbehaving. Yes we are,” said liner Jennifer Lopez, who expressed her allyship and gratitude to the community. “Over the years your love and your support have been a source of strength for me and today I am here to celebrate you,” she said. “I’m so happy to be able to be here to celebrate community, diversity, love and freedom.”

Day 2 features headliners Troye Sivan and Rene Rapp, Kim Petras, Raye, Sofi Tukker, Purple Disco Machine, RuPaul and more. Here are some highlights from the first day:
