12th Annual Ogden Pride Festival: RESIST, PERSIST, EXIST

The 12th Annual Ogden Pride Festival will be held on October 3 and 4, 2026, in downtown Ogden. This inclusive event celebrates the LGBTQIA+ community at the start of LGBTQ+ History Month and invites everyone to join for a weekend of connection, art, music, resources, and celebration.

The festival features a vibrant marketplace called the Rainbow Route, with vendors offering food, art, and shopping opportunities. Local businesses, nonprofits, and community organizations are encouraged to participate as vendors by applying through the festival’s website.

Entertainment is central to the event. Organizers are seeking musicians, performers, speakers, drag artists, dancers, and other creatives to fill the weekend with performances that reflect the resilience and joy of the LGBTQIA+ community. Applications are open for those interested in performing.

Volunteers play a key role in making the festival happen, helping with setup, guest support, stage assistance, vendor coordination, and overall operations. Anyone interested can apply to volunteer for a few hours or the entire weekend.

The festival is supported by sponsors from businesses, organizations, and community partners who wish to further visibility, equity, and belonging. Sponsors can sign up via the festival's website.

Applications for vendors, entertainers, volunteers, and sponsors are currently open online.
