People Share What LGBTQ Pride Means To Them
I had the pleasure to attend Outloud Music Festival at WeHo Pride as a complimentary guest, and it was a beautiful weekend celebrating LGBTQ+ people and amplifying queer artists and allies. Over the weekend, we witnessed performances by Lizzo, Remi Wolf, Kim Petras, Honey Dijon, Paris Hilton, and many other music artists and performers. With everyone in great spirits, it was the perfect opportunity to ask the Ouloud Music Festival guests, "What Pride means to them?" and their responses were inspiring, heartfelt, and necessary. Here's what people had to say: "Having the comfortability to be yourself. Unfortunately, a lot of families and people are not able to express themselves. It's being able to express yourself, and hopefully build lifelong friendships and to break out the shell and stigmas that currently exist about the queer community." —Reggie "Pride is a protest. It means liberating our rights, and that includes trans rights. It means having as much sex as we can have, and liberating our rights preferably at the same time." "Pride means being whoever you need to be in this lifetime to make it, and I do feel like most people don't do that. Be exactly who you are. Don't fit into a mold. Find people who accept you for who you are." —Adam "Pride is not only a celebration of love and joy and life, but also a promise we are making to the people that came before us. Queer people have always been here, but there are so many ugly parts of our past where queer identities were systematically erased. For example, the way that the AIDS crisis was handled in the '80s. When I celebrate Pride, I am not only using it as a time to be out and open in my identity, but to honor those who weren't able to do so in the past, and those who fought for our rights to exist and be visible in the world." "A celebration of acceptance and just living your authentic life. There are lot of people who don't live their authentic lives and we do." —Grace "Pride is a remembrance of the Stonewall riots; it's a celebration of our community where we can present a safe space and remind everyone they are loved and matter; it's a message that the LGBTQ+ community has always been here and will always be here." "Pride means to be fully free in whatever identity and orientation you are and to celebrate queer culture with the community and others." —Linda "Pride means celebrating the anniversary of the strong and fearless pioneers in the community who stood up for what's right in 1969, plus honoring the fight that has continued ever since." "Pride means community, and it's a reminder that no matter what the world throws at us, we are still here and will continue to be here no matter what." —Paola Pride, to me, is a time when it's good to reflect on those who came before [us] to give [us] the advantages and opportunities [we have today]. It's also a time for me personally when I like to check in on my development and my journey as a gay person, who I have become, and whether I am proud of that person. As the years go on, the answer has become yes more and more." "Being an ally." —Zack "Taking ownership of who I am without shame or guilt of the heteronormative!" "To me Pride means allowing yourself to love and be loved no matter what. It's not a season, it's a feeling." —K "Pride means never being ashamed of who you are and always being true to yourself (I guess, LOL)" "A celebration of how far we've come and how far we have to go." —Gabriel "Pride is being able to feel enthusiastic and accepted all at the same time without having to worry if I fit in." "Being proud of who you are no matter what." —Tina Lastly, "My existence is validated." Now, it's your turn. I want to hear from the BuzzFeed Community: "What Pride means to you?" Don't be afraid to be honest, thoughtful, or just have fun. It's your time to express yourself. If you need, use the anonymous form below. The best responses will be featured in an upcoming BuzzFeed Community post!

L.A. Pride 2025: Everything you need to know
With L.A. Pride's move out of West Hollywood and into Hollywood, and the arrival of WeHo Pride in the former city, L.A. is now lucky enough to have two inclusive festivals celebrating the city's LGBTQ+ community. Here, we'll be filling you in on all the details about L.A. Pride, the long-running festival and parade that dates back to 1970—making it the first event of its kind to commemorate New York's Stonewall Rebellion. But if you're wondering what's up with WeHo's own event, don't worry, we'll point you in the right direction for that celebration as well—along with even more major Pride Month events, plus our favorite party spots for divas and drag queens alike. When is L.A. Pride 2025? L.A. Pride returns on Sunday, June 8, 2025 with a block party on Hollywood Boulevard—and that's the same day the L.A. Pride Parade will step off in Hollywood. Note that L.A. Pride in the Park, a concert that's taken place at L.A. State Historic Park the past few years, won't be happening this year. When is the L.A. Pride Parade? The L.A. Pride Parade occurs on Sunday, June 8 in Hollywood, at the site of the first permitted gay parade in the world (back in 1970). The parade is staged along Hollywood Boulevard, Highland Avenue and Cahuenga Boulevard, and starts at 11am. This year's grand marshals include Niecy Nash and Jessica Betts, Andrew Rannells and TrinoxAdam. Following the parade, you'll find live entertainment, local vendors and food and drinks along Hollywood Boulevard at the mid-day Parade Block Party. See all of the details, including street closures, in our full guide to the L.A. Pride Parade. Where can I watch the parade? The parade steps off at Sunset Boulevard and Highland Avenue and heads north on Highland before turning east onto Hollywood Boulevard. From there, it follows Hollywood until it turns south onto Cahuenga Boulevard, before wrapping up back at Sunset. You'll be able to watch from the sidewalk, and expect just about every restaurant and bar with a patio to host special seatings on the morning of the parade. Also, the parade route sits along two Metro stops, Hollywood/Highland and Hollywood/Vine. What's WeHo Pride? And when is it? Though Christopher Street West may have moved L.A. Pride east, West Hollywood still holds its own celebration on the former site of the event. WeHo Pride will technically take place from late May and throughout June, but the main event, an all-weekend music fest dubbed OUTLOUD, takes place May 30 to June 1 (the date of the WeHo Pride Parade). You can find out more in our full guide to WeHo Pride. Between L.A. Pride and WeHo Pride, if you're wondering which is the Pride event for L.A.: Since they're held on separate weekends, there's no reason for to pit one against the other—so why not attend both?
