The Portland Gay Men’s Chorus presents a virtual version of their annual concert, June 18 and 20. In 2021, special, socially distanced events include “Pride Pics,” a two-day queer outdoor film festival at the Lot at Zidell Yards, June 16-17.
With food, drinks, live music and nonprofit information booths lining the Willamette River, the festival is a great place to gather, mingle and get more information about local LGBTQ+ groups. Portland Pride usually includes a two-day festival at Waterfront Park and an epic, colorful and joyous parade winding through downtown Portland. Known far and wide as a gay-friendly destination, the Rose City is open and accepting to visitors of all stripes. During the entire month of June, Portland gets friendlier than ever with the annual Portland Pride Festival and Parade, which is accompanied by LGBTQ+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, plus) community celebrations all over town. Please check individual event websites for the most up-to-date information. Other events may be canceled, postponed or held virtually. However, some event organizers may request or recommend mask-wearing at their events.Īdditionally, some event organizers and venues may require proof of vaccination, or a negative COVID test, for admission.
