Northeast Portland (NE 30th Ave)
NE 30th Ave between Killingsworth & Emerson, Portland, OR 97211The NE Portland Pride and LGBTQ+ Resource Fair 2026 brings the celebration into Northeast Portland on Sunday, July 19, from 3 to 9 p.m., giving the east side its own community-rooted Pride after the downtown parade. Hosted as an official Portland Pride event, it stretches along NE 30th Avenue between Killingsworth and Emerson for an afternoon and evening of music, resources, food, and neighborhood connection. This one leans local and welcoming, a free, all-ages alternative to the bigger waterfront crowds. Expect live performances and DJs, drag, local vendors and makers, food and drinks, and a resource fair where LGBTQ+ and Gay Friendly organizations share services and support. It is a relaxed, family-friendly way to keep Pride going into Sunday evening while putting the spotlight on the businesses and nonprofits that serve Portland's east side year-round. NE 30th and Killingsworth sits in the Concordia and Cully area, easy to reach on TriMet bus lines 8 and 72, with bike parking usually plentiful in this cycle-friendly part of town. Admission is free, so bring a little cash for vendors and food, and a reusable bag if you plan to shop the makers. Come hungry, settle in for the evening, and treat this as the mellow, community-first bookend to a packed Portland Pride 2026 weekend. For anyone who wants their Pride closer to home and a little less crowded, the NE Portland Pride and Resource Fair is the neighborhood's warm answer to the downtown party.
