About PRIDE Cape Coral
PRIDE Cape Coral is a nonprofit that holds an annual Pride festival and parade in Cape Coral each March. The 2026 edition moved to Lafayette Street, where the parade stepped off in the afternoon. The group also hosts smaller events during the year.
PRIDE Cape Coral is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit based on Lafayette Street in South Cape Coral. Its mission is to promote equality, inclusion and awareness by supporting the LGBTQ+ community and its allies, and alongside the festival and parade it runs educational panels and year-round community outreach across Southwest Florida.
The 2026 festival ran from noon to 8 p.m., with the parade stepping off at 4 p.m. and a PRIDE brunch held the next morning. General admission tickets were 10 dollars in presale and 15 dollars at the gate. A limited VIP experience, priced at 125 dollars, included private seating, an open bar, a VIP menu, air-conditioned restrooms, prime stage access and a meet and greet with the performers.
The festival welcomes all ages and offers family-friendly activities, though some performances may include mature themes, so parental discretion is advised. The lineup features artists, drag performers and DJs, and vendors include food trucks, artisans, local businesses and LGBTQ+ organizations sharing resources and merchandise.
