Rome Pride is back for our 5th annual festival and we’re calling on our community like never before. As the political climate shifts, we are facing new challenges. This year, we can’t rely on big sponsors to fund our event. That’s why we’re turning to you, our neighbors, friends, and allies to make Pride happen.

Every single donation matters. Every dollar goes directly toward creating a safe, vibrant, and joyful celebration of love and equality right here in Rome. We need your help to cover essential costs:

Permits to keep our festival legal and open to everyone
Police and security to ensure every attendee is safe
Talented entertainers who bring Pride to life
General festival expenses add up fast

Pride is not just a party - it’s a powerful statement that we are here, we are proud, and we will not be silenced. Over the past four years, we’ve grown bigger and stronger. But every year, we have to fight to make it happen. This year is no different and right now, we are far from where we need to be to fund Rome Pride 2026.

If you believe in community, in visibility, in standing up for love and equality - we need you.

Please consider making a donation today. No amount is too small. And if you can’t give, please share this campaign with your friends, family, and networks. Together, we can keep Pride alive in Rome, Georgia and make this year the best one yet.

Donate. Share. Stand with us. Because Pride belongs to all of us.

Protect Pride. Power Community.

Help us raise the funds needed to ensure Rome Pride 2026 is secure, accessible, and welcoming for all.
