This week, we are delighted to bring you our annual Wire Magazine Miami Beach Pride Special Issue with in-depth interviews of Ally Grand Marshals Judy and Dennis Shepard, parents of Matthew Shepard and founders of the Matthew Shepard Foundation, who will be helping kick off this year's 11th annual Pride celebration. We also interview Advocate Grand Marshal Juan Sánchez, a beloved LGBTQ community champion and 31-year veteran of the Miami Beach Police Department, who has been part of Miami Beach Pride in one way or another since the beginning. In addition to sitting down with the 2019 Grand Marshals, we also preview some of the great upcoming Pride entertainment with our interviews of Swedish electro-pop duo Icona Pop, headlining Miami Beach Pride, and LGBTQ icon Amanda Lepore, hosting Urge Spektrum. In addition, this Special Issue includes Wire Magazine's annual Miami Beach Pride Events Schedule – the most comprehensive guide to all official and unofficial Pride events and parties.
