Hello Pride friends and family! We want to thank you all for bearing with us patiently as we sort out a date for Lancaster Pride 2018. We are anxiously waiting for permit approvals from the City so we can move forward with our planning and announce an official date. We promise that as soon as we have confirmation you will be the first to know. The reason it is taking so much longer than usual is, quite simply, the tremendous response we've received from you in recent years. The festival has grown by leaps and bounds, with record-breaking attendance each year. We're fully anticipating 10,000-15,000 of you coming out this year. And while we are thrilled by that, it does take a great deal of additional planning and support from city services. We're working through the logistics of this with the City, and hope to have an announcement for you shortly. We will also fully release all information for vendors, volunteers, and sponsorship opportunities at that time. Thank you again for your patience, we're looking forward to an amazing Lancaster Pride 2018!

Dates and details for Lancaster Pride 2018 will be announced in the near future - we are currently working out the details we need to accommodate what we anticipate to be another record attendance event. As soon as we have confirmation on necessary details we will make announcements. Thanks for supporting our community and Lancaster Pride!

Great news for trans youth in Pennsylvania!

Today is the Transgender Day of Remembrance. In Lancaster, there will be a gathering tonight at 7 PM. Come together with us as the LGBTQ+ community to remember those in the transgender community who have lost their lives to hate.

Great news to share! Lancaster, you rocked the house! Many thanks.

Oh Lancaster, we love you ... not only do you have Lancaster Pride, but you also are home of the ExtraGive! ... Please put next Friday -- Nov. 17 -- on your calendars as a day of creating support for the LGBT Center of Central PA. ExtraGive sponsors often provide stretch funds that make your gift go even farther. Thank you!

Good morning all: We have confirmed a new date for this year's FAB event! It's Friday, Nov. 3. We hope you as well as your family and friends can join us to celebrate and recognize others for the great work they do for the LGBT community. Your ticket also helps fund the operations and programs of the LGBT Center. We are grateful for your support!

You may have experienced or witnessed the magic of vow renewal by Rev. Megan M. Malick at this year's Lancaster Pride Fest. Here is a gorgeous video by award-winning Monelli Films about a lovely human who believes in the beauty and magic of diverse relationships.

While we are not political as an organization, we as a community must support our trans sisters and brothers. This isn't about politics, left or right, Republican or Democrat. This is about human dignity and respect. This is about recognizing trans people as people. This is about equality. Please follow the National Center for Transgender Equality for more ways to take action and support the trans community.

It looks like an absolutely beautiful day for the Reading Pride Celebration! We hope you're able to join with such a great community. The festival goes from 12-6, but don't miss the after parties! Have fun!
