Turn festival traffic into a destination.

Bamboo Lounge sits directly on Trade Street, at the center of Winston-Salem's Annual Pride Parade & Festival. With the street closed and thousands of guests moving through downtown, Pride Patio Party was designed to make the venue an essential part of the celebration - not simply a bar beside it.

Months of preparation connected the visual identity, cocktail program, lighting, audio, decor, signage, wristbands, and photo experience into one continuous guest journey. From 11:00 AM until 1:00 AM, the room evolved with the day while staying unmistakably Bamboo.
