Pride's Mission is to support the LGBTQIA2S+, BIPOC, and most marginalized communities. We unwaveringly stand by our values, prioritizing the needs of these cherished communities above all else.

Pride is a Zero Waste Festival that collaborates closely with community members and environmental stewards to responsibly manage the Festival Grounds and its surroundings. Our expectation is that vendors will also prioritize environmental stewardship in their operations.
