Austin Pride Parade + Festival

August 22, 2026

Description

Austin Pride is back on August 22, 2026 — and this year, we’re showing up joyful, visible, and just rebellious enough to keep things interesting. What began as a fight for visibility has grown into one of Austin’s most vibrant traditions: a one-day celebration where community, culture, and unapologetic self-expression take over the city. Pride is still rooted in history, but it lives in the now — in every small business that shows up, every organization that stands with us, and every person who comes out to celebrate. If your business wants to be part of the energy, now’s the time. Vendor and sponsor spots are filling quickly, and this event always reaches capacity. Join us in the heart of it all and register today!

Austin Pride is back — louder, brighter, and ready to take over the city for one unforgettable day.

Join thousands of attendees for a full day of live music, community, celebration, and pure Austin energy. From the parade through the heart of the city to the festival packed with vendors, performers, and local organizations, Pride is where community and celebration meet in the best possible way.

Come ready to dance, connect, shop, celebrate, and show up exactly as you are. Whether you’re attending with friends, family, coworkers, or your chosen crew, Austin Pride is a space to celebrate together and make some noise while we’re at it.
