Prideville is inviting community members, visitors, businesses, and organizations from across Central Oregon to come together for the 6th Annual Prideville Festival on Sunday, June 28, 2026, at Pioneer Park in Prineville. This year’s theme, “Small Town, Big Pride,” celebrates the power of community, visibility, and belonging in rural Oregon.
The free event will take place from noon to 5 p.m. and will continue Prideville’s tradition as an all-ages, substance-free, and family-friendly celebration designed to foster connection, inclusion, and support for LGBTQIA+ individuals and allies.
“Prideville exists to create a welcoming space where everyone can celebrate who they are and connect with their community,” Alia Fern, Prideville Board President said. “This year’s theme reminds us that pride shines brightly in small towns, and that every person deserves to feel seen, valued, and supported.”
Festival attendees can expect a vibrant afternoon featuring local vendors, community organizations, performers, sponsors, and activities that showcase the diversity and spirit of Crook County. New experiences this year include a free photo booth, interactive aerial arts demonstrations and participation opportunities, a fashion workshop, and lawn games where attendees can connect and play with Prideville’s Queens and Kings.
Since its founding, Prideville has grown into a signature community event in Prineville, bringing together residents and visitors to celebrate inclusion, strengthen community connections, and support LGBTQIA+ visibility in Crook County and beyond. Previous festivals have featured live entertainment, food vendors, community resources, and family- friendly activities.
Community members interested in participating, volunteering, sponsoring, or learning more about the festival can visit www.prideville.org for registration details and event updates.
