Northern Nevada Pride

Northern Nevada Pride is Reno's annual Pride parade and festival. The festival at Wingfield Park includes more than 100 vendor booths, food trucks, bars, and live entertainment on multiple stages.

The Northern Nevada Pride Festival fills Wingfield Park in downtown Reno from noon to 8 p.m. General admission in 2026 was 10 dollars. VIP tickets added a fast-pass entry gate, a VIP cocktail garden, premium viewing areas at each stage, a hosted bar, snacks and swag. The festival features more than 100 vendor booths, food trucks, bars and entertainment on multiple stages, with a lineup of local performers and DJs.

The festival weekend extends beyond the park. In 2026 the evening program included a late-night drag and variety show by Peaches Christ at Cargo Concert Hall on North Virginia Street, and the next afternoon brought a ticketed Pride pool party at the Renaissance Reno rooftop pool, with a VIP option that added a hosted bar and appetizers.

The festival is funded largely by sponsors, organized in tiers from 500 dollars for nonprofit, government and educational partners up to 10,000 dollars and more, with in-kind sponsorships also accepted. Organizers credit local businesses, artists and nonprofits for making each year possible.

Pride events celebrate LGBTQ+ people and mark the Stonewall uprising of June 1969. Most combine a parade or march with a festival of performers, community groups, vendors and food.
