2025 Out! Raleigh Pride
The 13th annual Out! Raleigh Pride hosted by the LGBT Center of Raleigh on Friday, June 20th and Saturday, June 21st was a success with an estimated attendance of over 90,000! This was the first time we held a two day event, with Friday evening being the new addition and prioritizing adults all in a smaller, more intimate setting on Fayetteville Street. Friday also featured local artists from Pie Face Girls, KHX05, Sunny, Sabor V Latino, and The Arena with Kali Fuchis & Saga hosted by Ruby Liquer.
Saturday was the familiar family friendly event with performances from Headliners Sasha Colby and Crystal Waters, as well as Elle LC, Azul, Phina 5000, Poison, Franny Starlight and the Triangle Pride Band, Triangle Gay Men's Chorus, Common Woman Chorus, and 2-Spirit Dancer Jarret Stephens. DJs Gemynii and Taylor Alxndr kept us grooving throughout the day, and hosts Portia Foxx, Pirata, Miss B Haven, and Aida Stratton led us throughout the day between sets.
