Greensboro Pride Parade & Festival
Crest Presents the 20th Anniversary Greensboro Pride Parade & Festival
Saturday, September 12, 2026, Downtown Greensboro celebrates 20 years of Pride with the biggest celebration in the event’s history.
The parade steps off at 10 AM from the Elm-McGee Parking Lot (336 S Elm St), marches north up Elm Street, and disperses at Abe Brenner Pl. This year’s parade is free to register as an act of solidarity: for 20 years we showed up, this year we march.
The festival runs 11 AM to 7 PM across LeBauer Park and City Center Park, packed with vendors, entertainment, a beer garden, and a Kid Zone presented with the Miriam P. Brenner Children’s Museum. RuPaul’s Drag Race stars Athena Dion and Phoenix headline a meet and greet, with commentary from Jonathan Weant and Genesis DeVil at The Pyrle.
Want the full experience? All Access Pride Passes are limited to 150 total and on flash sale now for $100.
