We are just shy of 3 weeks away from our festival and we can still use your help! We know it’s a lot to ask so want to give you a little something for helping us and volunteering your time. We appreciate you!

Pride Month is right around the corner and once again we’re so excited to kick off our annual Battle of the Businesses! Tag your favorite businesses around Delaware County and have them join the fun! 🤩

We can’t wait to see the beautiful displays and artwork created this year. Good luck and may the proudest business win! 🏆

We are just a little over one month away from our festival!! This years’ festival is June 6th, 2026. The logo was designed by one of our community members and it’s a powerful one. We hope you love it as much as we do and enjoy all the merch and goodies that will be available with this design! 🏳️‍🌈

A few quick updates:

Vendor and Sponsorship applications are still open and we have a few spots left. If you haven’t gotten your application in yet, send it before it’s too late! All vendors and sponsors will be featured on our website and Rainbow sponsorship level also includes your logo on our festival t-shirts. All applications are linked to our Linktree in our bio.

We are always accepting more volunteer applications for the festival. This is a great way to meet members of the community and get involved! The link to sign up is also available on our Linktree.
