Our Festival
Our festival has grown from dozens to thousands in our thirty-year history. This year, we are planning to welcome over 6,000 people to the Kitsap County Fairgrounds on Saturday, July 18th, from 3 pm to 8 pm.
- Friday: Kick Off Party onboard the USS TURNER JOY w/ DJ Trent Von
- Saturday: Festival at the Kitsap County Fairgrounds
- Sunday: Pride Recovery Drag Brunch
This year marks our 30th festival, and our theme is CELEBRATE.
We know LGBTQ+ folks continue to face real challenges and setbacks. That’s exactly why we’re celebrating queer joy — because joy, in the face of adversity, is one of the most powerful forms of resistance we have.
Our message this year is simple: ALL WAYS WELCOME. Be yourself. Come as you are.
Join us at the Kitsap County Fairgrounds – Gordon Fields, 1400 Fairgrounds Road NW, Bremerton, WA 98311
Gates open at 3 pm, and we have about 100 vendors, including some amazing food. We will welcome folks from the stage at 3:45, including a performance from Cheer Seattle. At 4 pm, we have some of the best local performers from Kitsap, and at 5 pm, we have the cast of Kitsap Pride’s own drag brunch, Mimosas & Marys. 6:00 brings the edgy rock, glam, punk, & attitude of THE NASTY HABITS. When they wrap up, we’ll have a bit of a dance party with DJ Slowpoke under the summer sky.
