When is Dallas Pride?
Dallas is home to two distinct Pride celebrations run by different organizations.
Dallas Pride (June)
Produced by Dallas Pride, the main festival and parade are held in early June — in 2027, expected around Saturday, June 5 (confirm the date, location, and format on dallaspride.org, as these have shifted between Fair Park and downtown in recent years). The festival features multiple stages, hundreds of vendors, and a parade; the festival is ticketed and the parade is free to watch.
Pride in Oak Lawn (September)
A separate celebration produced by Pride in Dallas brings Pride back to the historic Cedar Springs Road gayborhood in mid-to-late September, anchored by the Rainbow Road Parade on the closing Sunday, plus a week of bar and community events.
Pride Season
Beyond the two main events, venues along Cedar Springs and across Oak Lawn host drag shows, dance parties, and fundraisers through Pride season. Browse listings on Out x Out.
