Spritz on the Water
July 27, 2025
At Windsor Premiere Cruises
WINDSOR, Ontario
All Aboard the Fun
Windsor-Essex Pride Fest’s Spritz Boat Cruise returned on Sunday, July 27, 2025, and this year’s ride was nothing short of spectacular. Boarding began at the foot of Ouellette Avenue, where guests quickly filled The Macassa Bay for an afternoon of dancing, drag, and waterfront views. With two bars, snacks, and plenty of energy before the boat even left shore, the cruise had the perfect recipe for summer celebration—and proceeds supported Windsor-Essex Pride Fest’s year‑round programs.

A Cruise to Remember
Setting Sail in Style
Once the ship set off, the crowd was treated to a scenic route along the Detroit River—from Peche Island all the way to the Ambassador Bridge and back. The vibe was lively from the start, with music pumping and friends clinking glasses against the backdrop of Windsor’s skyline. Parking and boarding were a breeze near the big Canadian flag—easy in, glorious out on the water.
Beats and Performances
DJ Kevin Bailey kept the dance floor alive with an irresistible mix of tracks, while Sevynn and Dulce delivered two show‑stopping sets that lit up the boat—expertly MC’d by Mel Lucier.
Set One
• Sevynn: thigh‑high black boots, black‑and‑gold fringe bra and panties, long blonde pony—high‑octane, high kicks, high energy.
• Dulce: leopard‑print + black unitard, silver boots, hot red wig with a subtle rainbow, tearing into “It’s Raining Men.”
Set Two
• Dulce: bright orange uni with skirt, long red hair—summer scorch.
• Sevynn: fur‑trimmed cropped hooded vest with matching cuffs, ultra‑mini skirt—cozy warrior princess on open water.
Fashion on the Waves
From bold costumes to breezy summer looks, the boat was a floating runway. Guests showed up ready to celebrate Pride in true fashion, turning the decks into a kaleidoscope of colour and joy.
A Cruise to Remember
Presented by Windsor‑Essex Pride Fest, the afternoon wrapped with door prizes before docking back downtown. With unforgettable views, stellar performances, and a crowd that brought nothing but joy, the Spritz Boat Cruise proved—again—that it’s the Pride event you simply can’t miss. Until next year, this one stays a golden memory on the water.
