Join us for Daybreak Pride, a free, family-friendly celebration held in Daybreak's Highland Park, that brings neighbors together to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community and the diverse stories that make Daybreak feel like home. Our theme this year is "Growing Together." Community is something we nurture and build side by side, and like a garden shaped by many hands, Daybreak continues to grow stronger when everyone belongs. This vibrant festival has the feel of a hometown gathering, with games and crafts for kids, local vendors and artists, food trucks, booths, and live entertainment. It is a place where families connect, friendships take root, creativity grows, and visitors can experience the welcoming spirit of Daybreak. Daybreak Pride is both a celebration and an invitation to celebrate love and identity, to foster belonging, and to learn more about the community we are building together. Whether you are here to celebrate, support, or simply learn, you are welcome. This event is free and open to the public. Daybreak Pride is a nonprofit, community-powered celebration, and donations are appreciated to help us continue creating inclusive and welcoming spaces for all. Bring your family. Bring your friends.
