Every Pride Festival Around Grand Rapids This Pride Month
June is Pride Month, a month dedicated to highlighting LGBTQ+ culture, history, and community, which routinely draws some of the largest crowds in every city that hosts a Pride event. This year, Pride is bigger than ever, with some festivals like Grand Rapids hosting a multi-day event for the first time.

Many of these festivals are taking place on the same day, so how will you know which festival to attend? Or, maybe you want to try and hit them all. Well, you're in the right place, because these are the festivals you need to know about.
