Sac Pride is back and prouder than ever. From now until Thurs., June 30, Sacramento will be rocking rainbows and celebrating the LGBTQ+ community. If you want to keep up with all the pride around the River City this month, we’ve got the rundown on everything you need to know.
🧡 Pride in Sacramento
Sacramento Pride March and Festival is a two-day event hosted by the Sacramento LGBT Community Center, a nonprofit organization that allows LGBTQ+ people to thrive by supporting areas like health and wellness + equality and justice. The annual Sac Pride event works towards that mission by celebrating the history and achievements of the LGBTQ+ community.
