Denver Pride 2026

Denver Pride brings together over half a million people annually each June in joy and protest. It is one of the top five pride celebrations in the country and the largest pride organized by a community center. This month-long activation of the city is a crucial fundraiser for The Center on Colfax, Denver’s LGBTQ+ community center for the past 50 years. We serve thousands each year through peer programs, social groups, and youth outreach. Today, we face a growing wave of challenges: from hateful rhetoric nationwide to shifting policies, strained resources, and a shrinking number of safe spaces that are driving many to seek refuge in Colorado. Denver Pride helps The Center remain a lifeline, a beacon, and a gathering place for our expanding community. Through Pride, we are able to meet today’s urgent needs while building the foundation for what comes next. Together, we are sparking a revolution.
