Pride in the Pines

On behalf of the Northern Arizona Pride Association Board of Directors and our sponsors, we are excited to welcome everyone to the 16th Annual Pride in the Pines Festival, Saturday, June 16th, 2012!

Pride in the Pines has come a long way from the small picnic in the park it was 16 years ago. This is a testament to the hard work and dedication of many people over the years and to the climate of positive change the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender community has experienced since that time. Pride remains a growing and important annual event here in Flagstaff, both as a celebration of our identity and as a symbol of our continued struggle for equality.

We are proud of what we have accomplished and look forward to many more years of welcoming everyone to Pride in the Pines! Have your Family join our Family at 7000 feet!

This year's festival promises to keep you entertained with an array of activities, events and musical performances. Headlining the Bud Light Main Stage, Raven of Rupaul's Drag Race, American singer/songwriter Mary Gauither, and Diva Sensation Martha Wash celebrating 30 years of "It's Raining Men," with appearances by local favorites Whiskey Rodeo, The Love Me Nots, Orgena Rose, The Chromatics and MANY MORE!

TICKETS are $10 pre-sale online at www.flagstaffpride.org or $15 at the gate.

Along with the festival on Saturday, there are many events scheduled over the entire weekend which can be found on our web site at www.flagstaffpride.org. The Green Room, our official Pride party venue, will kick off the weekend events with a beach party, and Uptown Billards and Nando's Downtown Grill will have plenty to offer those visiting Flagstaff.

We hope you will stay and enjoy the wonderful historical and national sites that Flagstaff has to offer, and take a tour of our historical downtown district while you're attending Pride.

A special thanks goes out to all of our dedicated volunteers, sponsors and board members for all the time and effort they have put in to make this event possible. We also would like to especially thank the City Of Flagstaff and Coconino County for supporting Pride in the Pines and truly making it a community event.

Join us Saturday, June 16th, in historical downtown Flagstaff at Wheeler Park in Celebrating 16 years of PRIDE!!!
