What to ExpectJoin us for the 14th Annual Arkansas PRIDEFest & Parade, hosted by Central Arkansas Pride.
Our 2026 theme, United in Pride, celebrates the strength, resilience, and unity of Arkansas’s LGBTQIA+ community and our allies. This year’s theme honors our shared history while uplifting hope, joy, inclusiveness, and collective power across the state. A community event for all to be themselves in a safe space.
October is LGBTQIA+ History and Coming Out Month, and at Central Arkansas Pride, Pride is more than a day or a month. It’s a year-round commitment.
