St. Louis Pride 2026: Dates, Parade, Events

The region's largest Pride event returns to downtown St. Louis across the 27th and 28th of June 2026, with PrideFest running from 11 am on Saturday through to 7 pm on Sunday at 1315 Chestnut Street.

This year marks a notable moment for Pride St. Louis, with the organization debuting a refreshed brand while building on the strong community support that brought the event back in recent years.

The weekend features live entertainment, the Grand Pride Parade, nonprofit organizations, local and national vendors and family-friendly activities across both days, with the full lineup and programming announcements still to come.

Pride St. Louis operates year-round under the mission of Educate, Advocate, Celebrate, with additional events running throughout the year in the lead-up to the main festival weekend.
