Find the 2025 LGBTQ+ Ohio Pride Guide HERE.

We must declare ourselves, become known; allow the world to know this life of ours which connects kings and farm boys, artists and clerks. Let them see that the important thing is not the object of love but the emotion itself. -Gore Vidal
Below you will find over 100 LGBTQ+ Pride events taking place all across Ohio in 2024.
But this Pride Guide is so much more than a list of dates and places. Each listing represents Ohioans coming together to create an opportunity for communities to gather, for individuals to embrace their authenticity and for the world to see that Pride is a part of who we are and how we’re moving forward.
To make your Pride-going easier, we have presented this info in several different formats: an interactive map, a section organized by city and the listings sorted by date.
Whether you attend one event or as many as you’re able to get to, may Pride be everything you need it to be.
Interactive Map
New this year! With the incredible support of the Reynolds Journalism Institute, we are so excited to introduce this interactive map so you can find a Pride near you. Or one far away from you. You can also sort the map by month.
