Be Proud! Fest is back — and this year, we're bringing Pride back to the neighborhood.
Be Part of The Movement and join us for a powerful, joyful, and grassroots celebration of Long Beach’s LGBTQ+ community. This year, we’re stepping away from gated festival grounds and taking it to the streets, beaches, storefronts, and spaces that have held us all year long. This isn’t just a festival—it’s a movement.
