Golden Valley Pride

They’re back! After a pandemic-induced hiatus, Golden Valley Pride is excited to announce they are back this year to celebrate their fifth annual Pride festival on Saturday, June 10 from 12 -6 pm at Brookview Park. 

Did you know that Golden Valley has more LGBTQ households per capita than any city in Minnesota? This awesome suburban pride celebration highlights the city’s LGBTQ families, friends, and allies in the spirit of promoting greater understanding of Golden Valley’s rich and growing diversity. Golden Valley Pride Festival began in 2016 and was the first suburban pride festival in Minnesota, attracting roughly 5,000 attendees each year.

You can look forward to food and drinks from vendors like Junebug Carolina Flair, Ben & Jerry’s, and Rollin Nollins BBQ. Don’t forget to stop by the beer and wine garden to enjoy craft beer from Utepils, cider from Sociable Cider Werks and plenty of wine options.

There are activities for the whole family at Golden Valley Pride so you can surely bring the younger ones along! This year will include bouncy houses, obstacle courses, and even Giant Jenga for the younger crowd.

And, brand new this year, Golden Valley Pride will have two stages full of entertainment, one large main stage sponsored by General Mills and one smaller community stage on the other side of the park, for double the music. This year you can enjoy performances from musical groups like The Freedom Jazz Band, Outloud!, Jen Burleigh-Bentz, and more.

If you’re looking to get your game on, Golden Valley Pride is also holding a few new sporting events this year: the GLASS Volleyball Tournament and Stonewall Sports Kickball exhibition games. You can register for these events online, make sure to register for volleyball by June 1!

Golden Valley Pride couldn’t happen without all of its sponsors, and they want to thank all of the individuals and local businesses who have showed their support for 2023.

They can’t wait to see you again!
