"The Castro Street Cam system began in 2017 as a community education service, making it possible for viewers anywhere in the world to see the vibrant Castro neighborhood and know that it is here to visit and enjoy. The existing four cameras provide views of Castro Street with its rainbow flags and rainbow crosswalks, Jane Warner Plaza, and Harvey Milk Plaza. On February 7, 2026, Cam #5 will be added to the system, providing views of The Castro Theatre."
"It is an amazing way for people all over the world to take a peek at the Castro anytime, day or night. How many times have we all wished we could be here when something happens? The heart of the Castro is where our community comes together to protest, to celebrate, to rejoice, and to cry. Now the Castro is just a click away."
"The pub crawl will be led by drag legend and Bay Times columnist Donna Sachet and former San Francisco Pride president and Mr. SF Leather Gary Virginia, who is also the President and Founder of Krewe de Kinque. Providing music along the way will be the King of Strings and Bay Times columnist Kippy Marks."
The Castro Street Cam began in 2017 as a community education service and streams views of the neighborhood worldwide. Four cameras currently show Castro Street, rainbow flags, rainbow crosswalks, Jane Warner Plaza, and Harvey Milk Plaza. Cam #5 will be added on February 7, 2026, to provide views of The Castro Theatre. The Cam #5 launch coincides with the theatre's Community Opening Weekend following a two-year restoration and renovation closure. The San Francisco Bay Times owns and operates the Castro Street Cam with support from community partners including Cliff's Variety, Orphan Andy's, and SoulCycle. A pub crawl on February 7 from 4–7 pm will celebrate the launch, led by Donna Sachet and Gary Virginia with music by Kippy Marks.
