Pride Street Festival

Saturday, June 6th from 12 - 7PM: Continuing celebrating Pride at the Gulfport Pride Street Festival on Beach Blvd in downtown Gulfport! Expect live entertainment, music and other fun, as well as a street market with more than 150 vendors. This annual event, which celebrates and showcases LGBTQ and LGBTQ-friendly people and businesses, is a fundraiser for the LGBTQ Resource Center of the Gulfport Public Library and for local nonprofits.

In addition to 150-plus local makers and small businesses taking part in the street market, many businesses along Beach and Shore boulevards are planning live music, "fun-raisers" and more fun and games. There's even a local business decorating contest, plus two main stages and, of course, a marching band.
