Tickets for the 42nd annual Long Beach Pride Festival, May 17 and 18, 2025, are on sale. The parade on May 18 is free, and the theme is “The Power of Community.”

The countdown has begun. Tickets for the 42nd annual Long Beach Pride Festival are on sale, and the festival returns to Marina Green on May 17 and 18, 2025. As the first major Pride celebration of the season, it kicks off a summer of love, unity and celebration for the LGBTQ+ community.

Our 2025 theme is “The Power of Community.” It speaks to the strength, diversity and resilience of the LGBTQ+ family in Long Beach and beyond, and to what we can do when we show up for each other.

The theme already has its own look. Long Beach designer Sabrina Ortiz won our 2025 logo contest with a circle of figures holding hands in the colors of Pride. She described her thinking this way:

In an effort to demonstrate the idea of community and the strength in unity, I chose to create an abstraction of a circle of people holding hands.

Here is some of what the weekend holds:

  • Live music from LGBTQ+ and ally artists
  • Immersive art installations celebrating queer creativity
  • Cultural showcases that highlight the beauty of our diverse community
  • Interactive activities, dance parties and family-friendly zones

On Sunday, May 18, 2025, the Long Beach Pride Parade will fill the streets with color and joy, and it is free for everyone to attend. Expect floats, community groups and messages of love and inclusion. March with a group or cheer from the sidelines; either way, you belong there.

For a limited time, early bird festival tickets were offered at $25 on our ticketing page before prices went up.

Since 1984, Long Beach Pride has been a gathering place for LGBTQ+ activism, celebration and community building. Each year thousands of people come together to celebrate love, identity and the progress made toward equality, and to stand together and raise our voices. Mark your calendar, and we will see you on the shore in May.
