Come Out With Pride Orlando 2026: dates, parade, events

Celebrate 21 Years of Come Out With Pride Orlando in 2026!

Orlando's Come Out With Pride festival and parade will return on 17 October 2026. The day will likely kick off with a lively festival at Lake Eola Park featuring food, music, vendors and kids' activities.

The highlight is the Most Colorful Parade winding through downtown Orlando. A Trans Rally, fireworks finale and pride awards presentation will round out the schedule.

Come Out With Pride Orlando draws over 200,000 attendees each year for Orlando's largest LGBTQIA+ event.

Orlando's Gay Pride, known as "Come Out With Pride," began in 2005. Initially, it was a modest gathering, but it quickly grew in size and significance. Over the years, "Come Out With Pride" has become one of the largest pride events in the Southeastern United States, drawing attendees from across the country and beyond.

Oh, and don't confuse the football team Orlando Pride with the Pride event!
