Where Pride Resides
There's still time to March or Volunteer, learn more.
COME FOR THE MARCH.
STAY FOR THE FESTIVAL.
Join us for the 22nd Annual New Paltz Pride March & Festival on Sunday, June 7, as we come together to celebrate LGBTQ+ visibility, joy, community, and pride.
Cheer on the walkers, marchers, and floats as they make their way down Main Street, then continue the celebration at Hasbrouck Park with an afternoon of vendors, food, drinks, entertainment, and community connection.
HONORING TWO HUDSON VALLEY LEADERS.
Stephen Hengst & Patrick Decker, founders of Big Gay Hudson Valley, will help lead this year’s march down Main Street as we celebrate their leadership, creativity, and lasting community impact across the Hudson Valley.
​
Their work has helped expand LGBTQ+ visibility, joy, creativity, and connection throughout the Hudson Valley. We are thrilled to celebrate their leadership and community impact as they help lead this year’s New Paltz Pride March down Main Street.

GET MARRIED AT PRIDE.
​Across the street at Peace Park, couples are invited to express their pride with a legal wedding or commitment ceremony at the historic site where New Paltz Mayor Jason West married 24 same-sex couples in 2004.
