About Lake Minnetonka Pride Festival
Lake Minnetonka Pride is a free, alcohol-free Pride festival planned for Spring Park on Lake Minnetonka, serving communities around the lake. Organizers said the 2026 festival would focus on healing, wellness and youth leadership.
Lake Minnetonka Pride reshaped its festival for 2026 around the priorities of young people. At their request it became an alcohol-free event focused on healing, wellness, mental health and safe space for self-expression, and organizers set out to create leadership roles so young people could help plan and run Pride going forward. Organizers later announced that the 2026 festival had been postponed.
The festival is free and is designed to be accessible to everyone. Plans included a Youth and Family Zone with entertainment, activities, treats and giveaways, with organizers also working on adding a petting zoo, plus live educational entertainment for youth and families, and a fun run connected to Minnetonka High School. Vendors register through an online portal, with lower prices for early registration to help with planning.
