OUR FESTIVAL

21st Annual Newark Pride Festival

"Our Bodies. Our Stories. Our POWER!"

July 13-19, 2026 | Newark, NJ

Since it's launch in 2005, the annual Newark Pride Festival has become a highly anticipated event in the region that offers a variety of social, educational, political, and cultural programs for youth, adults, families, and allies. It is 100% produced by volunteers in collaboration with Greater Newark's LGBTQ organizations, local businesses, and private donors. This year we will celebrate 21 years of persistent resilience in the face of adversity.
