Central Arkansas PRIDEFest & Parade
Über dieses Event
Central Arkansas PRIDEFest & Parade is the state's largest LGBTQ+ celebration, organized by the volunteer nonprofit Central Arkansas Pride. Held each October — a fall Pride in keeping with the regional calendar — it brings together a parade, live entertainment, drag performances, a Pride pageant, vendor booths, and community fundraisers.
From 2022 through 2024 the festival was centered on Argenta Plaza in North Little Rock's Argenta Arts District, with the parade running down Main Street. In 2025 the flagship event moved across the Arkansas River to downtown Little Rock, near the State Capitol, for greater visibility. The 2026 edition is expected in mid-to-late October (exact date to be confirmed).
