Welcome to Community Pride Festival 2026!

This year's festival will be on Saturday, October 10, 2026 from 12 PM - 7 PM EST at Mayme Moore Park (240 Martin Luther King Jr Blvd, Columbus, OH 43203).

Our 2026 Theme

This year’s theme, Queer (R)Evolution, recognizes that queer and trans liberation has always required both revolution and evolution. As our communities face renewed attacks from administrations, legislatures, and reactionary movements, we must continue building the tools needed for survival and liberation: mutual aid, community safety, political education, and collective care. Columbus Community Pride remains committed to a vision of Pride rooted not in policing or corporations, but in our responsibility to protect and sustain one another.

What's coming up for CCP 2026:

In June, we’re kicking things off with a full calendar:

A Pool Party and Skate Party to bring folks together in motion and joy
Queer Arts Night: a variety show of performances, art, and comedy from community
A screening of Summit Station

Moving into the fall, we’re building toward:

A Burlesque Show
Columbus Community Pride Festival 2026
And an after-party to close things out together
