Fresno Rainbow Pride

Fresno Rainbow Pride is the Central Valley's main Pride: a Saturday parade through Fresno's Tower District followed by a festival at Fresno City College, held on the first Saturday of June. The 36th edition took place on 6 June 2026, from 10am to 5pm, and the City of Fresno raises a Pride flag at City Hall in the days before.

It draws people from the whole valley, including Sanger, Clovis, Visalia and the farm towns, and the Tower District's bars and restaurants stay busy afterwards. Splash Fresno on Olive Avenue is the area's gay bar. The 2027 date had not been announced when this was written.
