Tower Grove Pride

Tower Grove Pride is a community-powered, independent Pride festival in St. Louis's Tower Grove Park along Main Drive. It centers LGBTQ+ people and supports social justice causes, with vendors, activities, and entertainment over a fall weekend.

Tower Grove Pride describes itself as a community-powered, independent Pride festival. It is centered on LGBTQ+ people but has a broad mission to support and promote social justice for every disadvantaged, oppressed or undervalued community.

The festival stretches along Main Drive in Tower Grove Park, from Center Cross to Grand Boulevard. Before the weekend, organizers publish a festival guide with the schedule, vendors, activities, maps and parking information. The festival map can be saved to a phone ahead of time so it works in the park without a signal, with an option to refresh it on Friday to see the latest booth list. Each year's festival design is also sold on shirts and posters. Visitors can also leave an email address to have the offline map saved for them.

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.

Tower Grove Pride has included festival and vendors.

The next edition is September 26-27, 2026. It usually falls late September weekend.
