Portland Pride Waterfront Festival and Parade

Dream Big is a simple invitation for the Portland and Pacific Northwest LGBTQIA2S+ community to see a future with no limits. This aligns with the Portland community being a hub of activism, celebration of artistic expression, and identity. We want people to pursue their dreams unapologetically and utilize the PRIDE CELEBRATION as the engine to kickstart an idea or cross the finish line on a community goal. A strong underscore of this theme is the need for solidarity, collaboration, and the idea that big dreams can lead to a significant societal change.

This year we are introducing the opportunity for the community to expedite their gate experience by donating ahead of time. Just show your "ticket" or receipt at the gate and skip this step. To note that security and bag checks will still be taking place, but we hope that this will cut down the time you spend waiting to get into the festival. 

Take your Pride celebration to the next level with the Dream Big VIP Pass.

Enjoy exclusive access to two VIP sections with prime views of the main stages. Fuel your day with delicious food provided by Utopia, Le Pasefika, and Wonderboy Smokestack. Plus, capture the moment with photo booth fun and meet-and-greet opportunities throughout the event. Celebrate Pride in comfort, connection, and community.

Tickets for limited Meet and Greets with our Headliners coming soon!
