Safety Info

Like many Pride festivals, our Black Pride Festival often attracts protestors. For your safety and enjoyment, do not engage with protestors. For more info, please see this volunteer video from Operation Rainbow Shield, a peaceful group of volunteers who aim to keep our festival safe and enjoyable for all by providing a buffer from hateful speech and protest signs.

Thank you to our partners!

The work we do is enabled by the generosity of our sponsors. Your sponsorship and donations have supported our collaborative LGBTQ+ organizations that provide gender-affirming care, advocacy, name change clinics, and the fight against legislative bans. You’ve also helped promote economic empowerment through our 3 annual events that provide vendor spaces, and foster diversity, equity, and inclusion via our speakers bureau.
