Park Circle Pride returns for its 6th anniversary June 2–7, 2026, transforming the Park Circle neighborhood into one of the South’s most dynamic LGBTQ+ Pride celebrations.Spanning six days and 35+ events, the festival activates local bars, restaurants, breweries, and community spaces with a wide-ranging lineup: Flag Raising Ceremony, drag shows and brunches, queer prom, trivia, comedy, karaoke, panels, workshops, a poetry stage, day rave, film screenings, a book fair, bingo, a Pride block party & market, and dedicated family and youth programming. Most events are free, with select ticketed experiences.
The 2026 festival poster, designed by Alexander Griffin of Gumbo Design Co., is a bold symbol of unity, resistance, and visibility. Raised fists and interlocked hands reflect both the fight for equality and the power of solidarity, while Pride and trans elements highlight intersectionality—capturing Pride as both celebration and movement.
Proceeds from Park Circle Pride 2026 benefit Alliance for Full Acceptance and We Are Family, supporting advocacy efforts and resources for LGBTQ+ youth across the region.
