2024–2025 Florida & The South LGBTQIA+ Pride Calendar - Pride Festivals in Atlanta, St. Pete, Nashville, New Orleans, Miami, and more

Andrew Collins

With some of the largest and most dynamic LGBTQIA+ communities in the country, Florida and the states that make up the South—Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, and Kentucky—are also home to many of the largest LGBTQIA+ Pride festivals in the country. And even going beyond some of these destinations with famous Pride events, a number of smaller Southern communities hold well-attended, fun, and spirited Pride events, from Charlottesville to Athens to Lexington. Events in this part of the world begin around February and continue throughout the year until October or November.

Note: We try to keep these calendars as current as possible, and we apologize if we’ve missed anything or we’ve fallen behind on the dates. My partner Fernando and I update these in our free time (it’s just something we do to support the community; we don’t receive any compensation, nor do we run ads on this site), so please bear with us. If you know of a Pride event that’s not on this calendar, or if you have updated information about an event, please email us at AndrewsTraveling@gmail.com.
