Philly Black Pride

Philly Black Pride is a week of events for Black LGBTQ+ Philadelphians and visitors, held every April since 1999. The 2026 edition, the 27th, ran from 20 to 26 April as a programme of parties, panels, a health and wellness strand, worship and social events spread across the city rather than a single march or street festival.

For 2027 the organisers have announced the weekend of 22 to 25 April under the theme "The Blueprint", with the Courtyard by Marriott Philadelphia Downtown (1421 Arch Street) as the host hotel. Individual party and event line-ups are usually published in the weeks before, so check phillyblackpride.org and the organisers' Instagram for tickets and venues.
