This will be Matinée’s fourth NYC pride event. Yes! Little did I know back in 2007 when I was gogo dancing the Matinée parties in Barcelona that I would now be producing the Matinée parties and making the brand something so great in the U.S.! Jake and I have raised the brand from the ground up in the U.S., and we’ll always think of Matinée as our baby. We spoke with the sexy Patrick Croughas he was gearing up for this year’s pride spectacular.Is it true you began your Matinée career as a gogo boy? DJ superstar Boris will headline, a man legendary for his 12-hour sets and Billboard-topping Janet Jackson and Pink remixes. This month, the boys return to the Big Apple with an even bigger party, the biggest outdoor pride party New York has ever experienced: MATINÉE NEW YORK PRIDE 2014. IT FEATURED A FOUR-STORY TENTED DANCE FLOOR WITH STATE-OF-THE-ART LIGHTS, SOUND AND LASERS, AND MUSIC BY LEGENDARY HO– USE DJ JONATHAN PETERS. THEIR BIGGEST EVER, HOWEVER, WAS LAST YEAR’S NEW YORK PRIDE WEEKEND. SINCE 2010, PATRICK CROUGH AND JAKE RESNICOW HAVE BROUGHT THE INTERNATIONAL PARTY FRANCHISE TO THE STATES WITH INCREDIBLE SOIREES IN SEVERAL CITIES.
MATINÉE LAUNCHED NEARLY 20 YEARS AGO IN IBIZA WITH THE IDEA TO ELEVATE PARTIES BY CRAFTING ELABORATE SETS AND THEATRICAL PRODUCTIONS.
