Mark your Calendars and Save the Date

The 2023 Pride on the Plaza will take place on Saturday, October 7, 2023 on the Plaza de Las Cruces from 5:00pm-6:00pm.

We are beginning the planning for the 2023 Pride celebration and will be holding our 1st Planning Meeting on Thursday, March 30th at 6:00pm. If you are interested in being a part of the planning of this event you can contact Robert Williams at robawil@gmail.com and he will give you more information.

"I have noticed that the Pride festivals I've attended in larger cities...feel disconnected from the local community and prioritize corporations/spending/raising money. I LOVE that our pride focuses on non-profits and connecting the community to immediate, local resources. This is what makes our Pride so beautiful, and I cannot thank you all enough for that." Andrew Echols

Pride 2023 Vendor Forms will be available soon.

If you are interested in having a vendor booth at the 2023 Pride on the Plaza please check back often for more information. We sold out of our vender spaces early last year and are expecting to sell out again this year. Once the Vendor Form is released we will assign spaces on a first come-first serve basis so get your form in quickly. More information will be posted soon.

California - Statewide Pride Events

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
From historic parades and colorful street art to massive festivals and star-studded concerts, California honors Pride in a big way. In fact, California was the first state in the country to designate June as its official LGBTQ+ Pride Month in 2018.

It's no surprise that California's history of LGBTQ+ activism runs deep: The first LGBTQ+ business association was founded here in 1962; Laguna Beach was the first city in the U.S. to elect an openly gay mayor; and the iconic rainbow flag was even designed in San Francisco. Each year, California cities honor this legacy-and you have plenty of opportunities to join in the fun. Here's a travel guide for anyone looking to celebrate LGBTQ+ history and culture at one of the many Pride festivals and events throughout the state.

Sacramento Pride

Sonoma County Pride

The 38th annual Sonoma County Pride theme is "Community" to honor the power of diversity and belonging. On June 1, the city raises its flag to kick off the festivities, which run from June 2-4. Centered in Santa Rosa, the three days of fun include a Pride Movie Night, annual Pride Parade, Wigs and Waffles Drag Brunch, and Aqua Boogie Pool Party. Keep the good times going with OutWatch Wine Country's LGBTQI Film Festival(June 9-11) in Sebastopol, as well as special winemaker dinners and tours, all part of Out in the Vineyard Gay Wine Weekend, July 14-16.

San Francisco Bay Area Pride

Explore more events throughout the Bay Area, including the stunning Ribbons of Remembrance rainbow flag display at Filoli in Woodside on June 3-4; the popular Fresh Meat Festival, featuring trans and queer artists performing in different corners of the 13,000-square-foot Z Space in the Mission from June 14-18; and Frameline47: The San Francisco International LGBTQ+ Film Festival, running from June 14-24. Sausalito is also hosting its first Pride celebration June 9-July 2, which includes Pride Not Prejudice, an exhibit that will celebrate queer culture through a collection of vintage photographs, as well as reliquaries and film, at the Sausalito Center for the Arts. Also planned is an outdoor concert with Banda Sin Nombre, a group that combines folk music with performance art, drag, and dance.

For all you need to know about where to celebrate Pride Month on the San Francisco Peninsula, including events at the Filoli House and Garden, San Mateo, and Half Moon Bay, check out this article.

Central Coast Pride

Los Angeles County Pride

Los Angeles was the first city in the world to host a permitted gay pride parade, and you can experience history in action with the 53rd annual event on June 9-10. See music icons Megan Thee Stallion (Friday) and Mariah Carey (Saturday) perform at Pride in the Park in Los Angeles State Historic Park, or watch 145,000 or so revelers dance on fabulous floats down Hollywood Boulevard during the parade.

In West Hollywood, attend WeHo Pride on June 2-4 for a street fair and music festival OUTLOUD with performances from Grace Jones and Carly Rae Jepsen. The WeHo Pride Arts Festival also runs through the entire month, featuring a book bazaar, a craft market, a drag parade, and screenings by LGBTQ+ filmmakers.

Catalina Island Pride Month

From Dana Point, Newport Beach, Long Beach, or San Pedro, you can hop across the water to stunning Catalina Island for Catalina Pride on June 24. Head to Avalon for live entertainment on Wrigley Stage, the Pride March to Casino Point, and a rainbow lighting of the historic Catalina Casino.

Orange County Pride

Orange County has long been a premier destination for LGBTQ+ tourism, and that's never more true than during OC Pride on June 25, held in downtown Santa Ana. Watch world-class performances and drag shows from stars like Mexican singer Ninel Conde and Morgan Michaels from Ru Paul's Drag Race. Disney fans won't want to miss a nearby celebration held in Anaheim. For the first time ever, Disneyland Park will host Disneyland After Dark: Pride Nite. On June 13 and 15 from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m., guests can enjoy special after-hours access and entertainment. Get your groove on at the Rivers of America Dance Party, watch Minnie Mouse march during the Pride Cavalcade, and try a variety of fun themed eats.

Fresno Pride

This year, Fresno's June 3 Rainbow Pride event has been dubbed the "Qu33r All Year" festival in recognition of its 33rd anniversary. The family-friendly parade of floats from more than 90 participating businesses and organizations begins at 10 a.m., and a $5 donation at the gate grants you access to live music, more than 100 vendors of food and merchandise, a beer garden, a children's play area and more.

The Liam Foundation and Rockford Public Library presents Pride Month Movies! Join us for brief discussion after the film viewing.

Movie Summary: Imagine yourself 18 years old wandering city streets without a place to go to sleep or eat or shelter from the cold. Imagine you're homeless because your parents kicked you out when they discovered you are gay or transgender. This is the subject of A Road to Home, which follows 6 LGBT youth through New York City as they learn to survive in the streets, then struggle to find beds, jobs, and some sense of purpose and direction for their lives. Four have grown up in poverty, two not. Five are people of color, one not. All have been rejected. Their lives typify the experience of the 500,000 homeless youth on American streets every night, 40% of them LGBT. In the course of their journeys, four of the characters in A Road to Home get aid from the Ali Forney Center, a program devoted solely to homeless LGBTQ youth. The struggle of its founder Carl Siciliano to keep its programs alive mirrors the journeys of the kids themselves. What the film reveals is not only the dangers, the fears, the lonely anxiety of being homeless, but also the resulting wounds to the heart that must be healed. The 6 characters in this film are determined that their current traumas will not define them for the rest of their lives.

Running time: 1hr 33min

This movie title was selected by Board Members from our local LGBTQ+ resource center, The Liam Foundation. https://theliamfoundation.org/

Chicago's Pride celebration consists of a full month of festivities and events, culminating with the annual Chicago Pride Parade, which traditionally takes place the last Sunday of June. The Pride festival takes place along North Halsted St. in the North Side neighborhood colloquially referred to a 'Boystown' the weekend prior to the parade. Pride in the Park, an outdoor music festival in Chicago's historic Grant Park, made its debut in 2019.

The coronavirus pandemic brought all those plans to a halt in 2020 and 2021, but PRIDE IS BACK in 2022.

Remembering Richard Pfeiffer - May 14, 1949 - October 6, 2019

Richard William Pfeiffer, coordinator of the annual Chicago Pride Parade since 1974 and a member of Chicago's Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame, died Sunday, October 6, 2019. He was 70.

"One of our earliest and longest-serving activists, Rich Pfeiffer made history as he gave our community decades of committed, effective service," said Art Johnston, Sidetrack co-owner and co-founder of Equality Illinois. "Under Rich's year-round consistent leadership Chicago's Gay Pride Parade grew from a few hundred participants and observers to thousands of marchers and over a million viewers, reflecting the amazing growth of our communities."

Pfeiffer watched Chicago's first-ever parade in 1970, was a volunteer marshal at the second, third and fourth parades, and he volunteered to be the coordinator at the fifth parade in 1974. He held the title through this year's 50th annual Chicago Pride Parade.

When is Chicago Pride?

Chicago Pride Fest, presented by the Northalsted Business Alliance, returns Saturday, June 18 (11 a.m. - 10 p.m.) and Sunday, June 19 (11 a.m. - 10 p.m.). The iconic Chicago Pride Parade is Sunday, June 26, beginning at noon. Pride in the Park in Chicago's Grant Park is Saturday, June 25 and Sunday, June 26.
Events: The Parade
The 51st annual Chicago Pride Parade marches through the city's Boystown neighborhood with the annual parade steps off at noon on Sunday, June 26, at Montrose Avenue and Broadway in the Uptown neighborhood. The parade winds ( map) its way through the north side of the city, ending near the intersection of Diversey Parkway and Sheridan Road in Lincoln Park. Pride Month in June highlights Chicago's vibrant LGBT community. The energy in the city peaks on Pride Weekend, which traditionally falls on the last weekend of June each year to commemorate the Stonewall Riots.

The annual parade marks the uprising, outside New York's landmark Stonewall Inn, which began the Gay Rights Movement. During Chicago Pride Fest the weekend prior, stages of music, exhibitors, great food and drinks will be available to enjoy. In the evening the revelers will pour into Boystown clubs and party into the wee hours of the night.

The roar of the crowd heralds the start of the Pride Parade, a dazzling cavalcade of diversity. The streets are lined 30 - 40 people deep in spots as over 1 million people cheer the contingents on and enjoy the show, culture and experience! For the liveliest viewing spots head to the Boystown section of North Halsted Street, between Belmont Avenue and Grace Street. If you are seeking a less crowded area to view the parade, look for your viewing spots north of Irving Park Road, along Broadway or further along Broadway between Belmont Avenue and Diversey Parkway.

History of Pride
The annual Pride Celebration commemorates the rebellion of LGBT patrons of the Stonewall Inn in New York City's Greenwich Village in response to a routine police raid on June 27, 1969. The following year, a "Gay-In" took place on June 27, 1970 that was the early progenitor of the current Pride Celebration. Since 1972, the event has been held every year. Since its modest beginnings, Chicago Pride has grown to be one the largest and most well-known Pride events in the world. Pride has come to symbolize several things: the long history of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender dignity, the freedom of all people to meaningfully and proudly express their sexual and gender identities, and the commitment of LGBT people to combat oppression.
Do I need a ticket to get into Pride?
There is no fee to attend the Pride Fest or watch the Parade. A voluntary donation is requested at the entry gates to Pride Fest. This donation goes back to community support programs. The Pride in the Park event on June 29 does require a ticket. Further information for that event can be found here.
Are pets allowed?
Yes, pets are allowed, including, of course, service animals assisting people with accessibility needs. We do, however, strongly recommend leaving pets at home since both the Parade and Festival are noisy, crowded, and hot.

Pets can sometimes be very startled by the crowds and sounds of Pride. In busy areas, it may be difficult to navigate with pets who will be walking on the ground given the high number of stomping feet moving through the crowd.

Remembering Richard Pfeiffer - May 14, 1949 - October 6, 2019
State Rep. Greg Harris: "I'm very sad and surprised to learn of Richard Pfeiffer's passing. For decades Richard was a fixture on the front lines of the struggle for LGBT+ rights as an activist, journalist for over 40 years, most notably as the leader of Chicago's Pride Parade. Today millions line the street to celebrate the accomplishments, culture, power and joy of the LGBT+ community. It's important though to remember that when the parade started in the 1970s it was very much an act of resistance against inequality and injustice. Richard's work over the years helped move us very very far, but the real meaning of Richard's work in our current political era is to remember that the struggle is as hard as it ever has been, and bringing the community together in solidarity makes us stronger as we fight back."

State Rep. Sara Feigenholtz: "Richard Pfeiffer was a pillar in our community and his passing is a profound loss for all of us. On the last Sunday of every June, Richard Pfeiffer was in charge of it all. Since some of the first Pride Parades in the 1970's Richard had his hand in growing the parade into an event that attracted millions of people who came to show their support and acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community. How lucky we were to have Richard with us at this year's parade to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Stonewall. My heart goes out to his loved ones at this most difficult time."

Ald. James Cappleman: "Richard Pfeiffer was a pioneer for the LGBTQ+ community. His leadership with orchestrating the Pride Parade was instrumental in the coming out stories for so many of us, including me. We are forever grateful to him."

Mayor Lori Lightfoot: "Amy and I were very saddened to learn about the passing of Richard Pfeiffer. Richard was a tireless gay rights activist, whose boundless energy led him to lead countless advocacy groups over the past decades, from the Chicago Gay Alliance to the Mayor's Advisory Council, the Gay Speakers Bureau, along with many others. But Richard's greatest legacy lies in Chicago's own iconic Pride Parade, which for nearly 50 years he worked so hard to organize, guiding it to become the overwhelming celebration of love and acceptance that it is today. Richard was a living example of the power of speaking out and fighting for what you know is right. Our thoughts are with his beloved partner Tim, as well as the countless friends, family, and fellow activists Richard worked, laughed and celebrated with over the course of his incredible life."

Ald. Tom Tunney: "Chicago and our LGBT community lost a champion. Rich Pfeiffer dedicated his life to LGBT activism and service. The decades he gave organizing the Chicago Pride Parade helped make it one of the nation's most popular celebrations of diversity and acceptance. We owe a lot to Rich and will forever honor the legacy he leaves behind. My thoughts are with his husband Tim Frye and his family."
