Middletown PrideFest

Saturday, June 7th, 2025

Join us onn Saturday, June 7th, 2025 at 12pm for the seventh annual Middletown PrideFest, a vibrant celebration of love, diversity, and community! The festivities will kick off at 12pm with a lively Pride March down Main Street, where participants will showcase their pride in and support for the LGBTQIA+ community.

Pride Marches hold significant importance for the queer community, serving as both a platform for visibility and a powerful reminder of the ongoing fight for equality and acceptance. Following the March, we will hold our Pride Rally at 2:30pm on the South Green Stage. Speakers will share our community’s accomplishments and struggles, and we will then honor our Grand Marshals.

Middletown PrideFest provides space along the March route for community organizations, artists, and vendors. We will continue to offer space to LGBTQIA+ organizations and businesses at no cost. Attendees can explore these groups and vendors while enjoying a spectacular stage show featuring a DJ, dazzling drag performances, and live music that will keep the energy high throughout the day.

This family-friendly event is open to everyone and aims to foster inclusivity and acceptance. Join us in creating a space that allows individuals to celebrate their identities, connect with each other, and honor the history and struggles of those who came before us.

Applications will open for performers, hosts, sponsors, vendors, and marchers on Monday, January 20th, 2025 and can be found on our website, middletownpride.org.
