Pride St. Louis Postpones PrideFest 2021 

(St. Louis, MO) April 9, 2021 – The Pride Saint Louis Board of Directors has decided to postpone PrideFest until June of 2022. With the continuing capacity and distancing restrictions due to COVID-19, Pride Saint Louis was not able to obtain the necessary permits needed to produce our annual event. This decision did not come easy, as we had hoped the situation would have made it possible for us to celebrate our community as in previous years. However, we believe it is best to start looking towards the future and prepare for PrideFest 2022.

 Please continue to visit our website at www.pridestl.org and social media outlets (Facebook and Instagram) to stay informed on our future events this year. We will continue to find ways to bring the community together to celebrate Pride. We look forward to being back together again next year.
