Thank you for joining us at Denver Pride as we commemorated our 50th anniversary through the ultimate celebration of love, diversity, and equality. This spectacular two-day festival unites communities from across Colorado and the Rocky Mountain region, bringing in an estimated attendance of over 500,000 people in 2024.

We kicked off the weekend with the Pride 5K on Saturday, June 22, 2024, followed by the iconic two-day Denver PrideFest event at Civic Center Park boasting 250+ exhibitors, 30 food vendors, and captivating live performances. Sunday’s Coors Light Denver Pride Parade flaunted colorful floats, marchers, music, and more, drawing over 120,000 spectators along 14 blocks of Colfax Avenue up to Civic Center Park, where day two celebrations continued. We appreciate you for coming together to create an unforgettable experience as we honored 50 years of Denver Pride.

Denver Pride’s Inaugural Gayborhood Market

New this year, Denver Pride partnered with The Rainbow Market Denver to create the inaugural Gayborhood Market, a space dedicated to supporting local LGBTQ+ small businesses, entrepreneurs, craft-makers, and artisans by lowering the cost barrier to access PrideFest participation. We were grateful to receive an overwhelming interest from approximately 100 wonderful businesses and were in awe of the incredible offerings that each business showcased at Denver PrideFest’s 50th anniversary!

This year’s inaugural market was located in Lincoln Veterans Memorial Park, adding to the excitement of Pride’s festivities. If you are interested in signing up, we look forward to seeing your application next year!
