Hosted by Pride Northwest.

(From Pride Northwest) Join us for the annual Portland Pride Waterfront Festival and Parade, one of the largest donation-based LGBTQIA2S+ Pride events on the west coast, attracting tens of thousands of visitors to Portland each year. LGBTQIA2S+ people travel from all over the Pacific Northwest and beyond to express their individuality and celebrate community in a safe, open environment. There is a $10 suggested donation, all donations go to Making Pride Happen each year and to support Pride Northwest's year round programming.

The Portland Pride Waterfront Festival and Parade is the single, largest visibility opportunity for our region’s LGBTQIA2S+ community organizations and businesses, where they can attract new supporters and clients, increase their volunteer base, and raise much needed funds. Festival exhibitors range from small high school GSAs, nonprofits and community groups, to regional businesses and international corporations. 

The Festival and Parade attract tens of thousands of visitors to Portland each year, bringing significant revenue to the local LGBTQIA2S+ business community and to the city as a whole. LGBTQIA2S+ community members travel here from all over the Pacific Northwest to celebrate themselves and each other in what is often the only safe and open environment that they may experience for the year.
