Orange County Pride

A 501(c)(3) Organization Actively Involved in Attaining Equality Respect for All People. Orange County LGBT Pride is the Host of the Yearly Orange County Pride Festival & Parade Held in June to Honor and Celebrate Our LGBTQ+ Lifestyles. In 2009 OC Pride returned with a picnic in the park; with an attendance of over 500, it unified the LGBT community and gave people who'd been hurt by proposition 8 a sense of belonging. In 2010 and 2011, OC Pride was held at Hidden Valley in Irvine (by Verizon Amphitheater); with over 3,000 people, a main stage of amazing entertainers and speakers, a non-stop dance tent, a lively kids corner, and over 80 booths and vendors, this was a Pride Festival to be proud of. In 2012 OC Pride took it to the streets in downtown Santa Ana for another wonderful day of celebration. This change was well received, with over 10,000 members of the LGBT community and our allies coming to experience a new feel while also maintaining many of the qualities that make our event so unique. This year, OC Pride is celebrating "Color Our World with Pride" with an entire week of celebration! 2015 OC Pride Week: July 27 to August 2!
