History

The first pride event in Central Pennsylvania took place in Linglestown, Pennsylvania in the late 80's. From there it was moved to Ski Roundtop and Harrisburg Area Community College before eventually finding a permanent home in Riverfront Park in 1992. The festival now features musical acts, attracts thousands of attendees and includes a parade throughout Downtown Harrisburg.
