The 2nd annual Boone County Pride Festival is back at Thomas More Stadium in Florence.
The festival returns on Sept. 28, from 1 to 4 p.m. at 7950 Freedom Way. Organizers describe it as a “family-friendly event celebrating inclusivity and diversity, and LGBTQ+ residents.”
Attendees can enter the festival for free and enjoy live entertainment, browse vendors and community resources and participate in family-friendly activities. Over 70 vendors and community organizations will be present, and 17 different entertainers are planned to perform. Ballpark food will be available for purchase, along with water and soda.
The festival is on the eve of LGBTQ+ History Month in October.
In that spirit, the Boone County Pride Festival celebrates LGBTQ+ Boone County residents and creates a fun, safe space for everyone, regardless of identity or background. All are welcome.
