ST. PETE PRIDE

The 10th Annual St. Pete Pride
Street Festival and Promenade
returns Saturday, June 30. The
diversity of Southwest Florida’s
LGBT community and visitors from
around the world join local allies,
business and community leaders,
and supporters for a day of food,
fun, dancing, music, and fun.
St. Petersburgh’s Grand Central
District transforms into Carnivale
with an attendance estimated
near 100,000.
Following in the great tradition
of the Stonewall Riots and the
start of the modern gay rights
movement, St. Pete Pride has
grown into one of the country’s
largest Pride events. In 2009,
the number of attendees topped
80,000. For more information:
