PridE Season is HERE!

The thirteenth annual Bloomington Pridefest, ranked by Thrillist as the best college town pride in the nation, will take place on August 22, 2026. It is an incredible day with thousands of people celebrating LGBTQ+ lives and the fight for liberation on the iconic Kirkwood Avenue in Bloomington.

Bloomington Pride hosts Pridefest as our annual fundraising event supporting local organization and community members making Bloomington a place to call home. We can’t do it without our volunteers, community members, entertainers, vendors, and sponsor partners. 2026 will be the best Pridefest yet, and we cannot wait!
