June Lethbridge Pride Fest
Lethbridge Pride Fest Society has a proud history of celebrating & promoting equality for the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, Two-Spirit, Queer, Questioning, Intersex, & Asexual community. The first Lethbridge Pride Festival was held in 2007 & consisted of a bbq on the outskirts of Lethbridge & a dance roughly 20 minutes outside of city limits. Lethbridge’s first pride was organized by a handful of individuals who had a dream that Lethbridge Pride Fest would grow & rival major centre’s like Edmonton or Calgary. Our recent Pride Festival saw over 8,000 people attend the various events ranging from a parade, two different dances, family activities, drag shows, author readings & more!
