Due to the ongoing health concerns related to COVID-19, we have modified our Annual Palm Beach Pride event from a two day gated festival to a one day, Palm Beach Pride Market. There will be no parade.

The Pride Market will be a free open air marketplace at Bryant Park on the City of Lake Worth Beach Intracoastal. Attendees can expect to see some of their favorite Pride vendors, along with many new ones, who will offer quality products, prepared foods, fresh produce, plants, gourmet meals and treats, handicrafts and more. This will be a family-friendly and pet-friendly LGBTQ+ event.

Vendors will be socially distanced from each other, and the emphasis is on shopping versus socialization. Attendees must wear masks and are encouraged to shop quickly.

Hand sanitizer will be placed throughout the market. As a socially distanced open air marketplace, we will be following local, state, and CDC COVID-19 guidelines.
