A 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Formed in 1986, Palm Springs Pride produced its first Pride Festival in Palm Springs to celebrate the 1969 Stonewall Rebellion on New York City's Christopher Street. The 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization was incorporated in 1997, and today brings together the skills, talents and vision of our diverse community to produce the Coachella Valley’s Pride parade and two-day festival, which attracts over 100,000 participants to downtown Palm Springs.
