UP Rainbow Pride is thrilled to announce that the 10th Anniversary Upper Peninsula Pride Festival will return to Mattson Lower Harbor Park in Marquette, Michigan on Saturday, June 14, 2025!
For over a decade, U.P. Pride Fest has been a vibrant celebration of acceptance, love, community, and visibility. More than just a festival, it is a vital space for LGBTQ+ individuals, their families, and allies to gather, celebrate, and honor the ongoing fight for LGBTQ+ rights. As the Upper Peninsula’s largest and longest-running Pride event, the festival continues to grow-thanks to the unwavering support of local and regional businesses and organizations.
Since moving to the heart of downtown Marquette in 2021, U.P. Pride Fest has remained free, family-friendly, and community-driven, powered entirely by volunteers.. This year, organizers are aiming higher than ever, with a fundraising goal of $20,000 to make the 10th anniversary celebration the biggest and most inclusive yet.
Support is more than a donation-it’s a message to LGBTQ+ youth, families, and community members that they belong.
