I’ve been attending IMPAQT GSO (GSO Pride) for years now, and every single time it somehow gets even better. This festival is incredibly well-organized—from the layout to the flow of events, everything just works so smoothly and makes the whole experience stress-free and enjoyable. The atmosphere is always amazing. There’s such a strong sense of community, and I’ve consistently felt safe, welcomed, and included throughout the entire event. It really creates a space where everyone can just be themselves and celebrate together. One of my favorite parts is the variety of vendors—there’s always something new to discover, from local artists to community organizations to great food. You can really tell how much thought and care goes into curating such a diverse and engaging lineup. As an ally, this event means so much to me. It’s an honor to show up year after year to support, celebrate, and stand alongside such an incredible community. IMPAQT GSO truly captures the spirit of Pride!
