Pride Month 2025: Festivals, flag raisings and more in Bucks County, Montco
June is Pride Month — a time of celebration for the LGBTQ+ community.
Inspired by the Stonewall Uprising, Pride Month also serves as an opportunity to reflect on the progress made in the struggle for equal rights, while bringing awareness to the issues and policies still impacting the LGBTQ+ community today.
Pride marches first began in 1970 on the first anniversary of Stonewall in New York, Los Angeles and Chicago. Since then, the pride movement has grown into a month-long celebration with events across the country recognizing and uplifting the LGBTQ+ community.
Here are a few events in Bucks and Montgomery counties where you can celebrate pride locally:
