Rochester Pride Rally to return in late August

Volunteers working in collaboration with Rochester Main Street are pleased to announce that Rochester Pride is tentatively scheduled for Saturday, August 27th (1-4pm) in Central Square.

According to Palana Hunt-Hawkins, the event will be similar to last year with speeches and a selection of invited information vendors.

“We are working to secure the permit with the City of Rochester, however, planning is well underway,” said Hunt-Hawkins. “We look forward to welcoming the community to this important gathering.”

The mission of the event is to promote unity, visibility, inclusivity, equality, and a positive image of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBTQ+) community.

More information will be released when the official details are confirmed.
