Hampton Roads Pride
HAMPTON ROADS, Va. - June is Pride Month!
Hampton Roads Pride has been celebrating the local LGBTQ community for three decades now. Although celebrations were canceled last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the nonprofit has announced a full lineup of events, including a scaled-down PrideFest at the Scope Arena Plaza on September 11.
The theme of this year s celebration is Revive Your Pride.
Although Hampton Roads Pride will not return to Town Point Park in 2021, the organization has worked with city officials, business partners and public health experts to take some of the most popular elements of PrideFest and reinvent them as individual events spread throughout the month of June.
