2023–2024 New England & Mid-Atlantic LGBTQ Pride Calendar – Pride Festivals in NYC, Boston, Washington, and more
Begun in response to the Stonewall Riots of 1969, LGBTQ Pride festivals have had deep roots in the Northeastern United States for decades. Cities like New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, and Washington, DC continue to stage well-attended Pride events every year, typically during the month of June. But you’ll also find a number of smaller cities in the region hosting their Pride events at other times from spring through fall.
