Pride Month Across the Country
To avoid the summer heat, Atlanta doesn’t host their Pride festival until October – the 12th and 13th this year – but if you can’t wait the five months until then, there are Pride festivals, parades, and events across the state, region, and country happening this month that will whet your appetite until then!
