Join the community for one of the biggest Pride celebrations in the country, June 28-29, 2025.
Denver's LGBTQ+ community throws an enormous festival every summer with Denver PrideFest. The party has been going on since 1974. Recognized as one of the top 10 Pride events in the country, Denver PrideFest is a celebration of community and culture that is welcoming, inclusive and fun to all attendees, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. The free, two-day festival gets bigger every year and is hosted by The Center on Colfax.
The festival, held in Denver's Civic Center Park, promotes the heritage and culture of the LGBTQ+ community of Colorado. It typically draws more than 550,000 attendees over two days, making it the largest Pride event in the Rocky Mountain Region! The fest includes more than 250 exhibitors, 30 food and beverage vendors, and live performances all weekend.
Although PrideFest is the last weekend in June, you'll find Pride events happening across the Mile High City all month!
