October 10, 2021Come Out With Pride 2021 in Orlando is taking place at Lake Eola Park on October 9th, and Harmony Healthcare Orlando is going to be there. Keep reading for all of the details.
The annual Come Out With Pride festival will be held in person at beautiful Lake Eola Park on Saturday, October 9, 2021. It is scheduled from 12:00 PM until 9:30 PM. After last year’s drive-through event, we can’t wait to see you there and in-person!
What Is Come Out With Pride?
Founded in 2005, Come Out With Pride was created to meet the need for a Pride festival that built unity, gave the opportunity for open dialogue within the local
community, and rallied the rest of the country to our side as the Pride Chamber (Central Florida’s LGBTQ+ chamber of commerce) worked to influence Florida legislators to create more inclusive laws.
Since then, Come Out With Pride has become one of the largest Pride festivals in Florida, bringing everyone together for a day of love, support, and alliance for each other and for the community.
What Makes Come Out With Pride Possible?
Come Out With Pride is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization. That means that this festival is made possible by you and the rest of our local community.
We Need Volunteers
This event creates a space that lets people celebrate who they are, and embrace one another. They are always looking for more volunteers to make Come Out With Pride the amazing event that it is. If you would like to get involved, fill out the volunteer application on the Come Out With Pride website.
Come Out With Pride 2021
This year’s all-day festival will showcase a diverse series of events, including the following:
Parade
The Most Colorful Parade is back this year with an even longer parade route, starting on Orange Avenue at Washington Street. This will also be the very first year that Harmony Healthcare Orlando will be participating in the parade, so make sure you look for our float and our staff that will be on the float!
Entertainment
There will be two stages in Lake Eola Park, the Unified By Pride stage and the Amphitheater stage, which will feature live entertainment and celebrity headliners throughout the day.
Pride Marketplace
This vendor area showcases all of the goods and services from organizations that support the LGBTQ+ community in the Central Florida area.
National Trans Visibility March
This on-the-ground march will begin with a rally at the Unified By Pride Stage, and close with a march to bring awareness to the rights of trans and non-binary individuals.
Fireworks
There’s no better way to end a perfect day than with the Come Out With Pride 2021 signature fireworks finale over Lake Eola.
