Half the fun of pride is putting your most fabulous self together for it.

There are the outfits. There are the shoes. There are sunglasses and pride t-shirts and shorts to be ironed out before the main event.

But why simply shop, when you can combine it with performances, delicious food, fashion and prizes?

Check out special appearances by Peppermint, Vanderpump Rules star Billie Lee, and the Columbus Gay Men’s Chorus. Better yet? All pride month, Macy’s is partnering with The Trevor Project, the national organization providing suicide-prevention services to LGBTQ youth.

Macy’s is hosting an incredible array of in-store pride celebrations across the country all month long. If you’re in one of these lucky cities, plan to join the party. (And while you’re at it, check out the store’s amazing map of pride parades from Seattle to San Juan, Puerto Rico.)
