The free event will take place virtually in Hotel Hideaway on June 4, which aligns with LGBTQIA+ Pride Month, celebrated with events and parades throughout the month of June in the US.

Trixie Mattel said: "One of my passions is gaming and engaging with fellow gamers online, so I was excited to collaborate with Hotel Hideaway for this opportunity to perform and connect with its community."
"We're pumped to be partnering with an icon like Trixie to give visibility to all communities in our games and inspire players to show their pride support. At Azerion one of our biggest strengths is our diversity. We are proud to show our solidarity with the LGBTQIA+ community in celebration of Pride Month," says Jurriaan van Teunenbroek, VP Games and Content at Azerion.
On June 5, beginning at 10am CET and later at 6pm CET, Trixie Mattel will be performing standup comedy in addition to a musical performance for free to audiences in Hotel Hideaway, followed by a Meet & Greet and live Q&A with Trixie Mattel on the Hotel Hideaway Youtube channel.
Recently, Hotel Hideaway held several virtual concerts for its community, including performances from artists Cookiee Kawaii, DJ Luuk van Dijk, DJ Mark Sixma and Sidney Samson that altogether drew close to 300,000 concert-goers who viewed and danced through the 30-minute performances, and purchased concert merchandise, including clothing featuring the headlining artists' brand.
