Stonewall Pride Lights Up South Florida Today with Parade, Music, and Community Celebration

South Florida is turning up the volume on Pride today as Stonewall Pride takes over Wilton Manors with an afternoon and evening packed with live entertainment, community events, food vendors, and the highly anticipated Glow Night Parade.

The annual celebration, one of the largest LGBTQ+ events in Florida, transforms Wilton Drive into a colorful festival destination as thousands of residents and visitors gather to celebrate diversity, equality, and community. This year’s festivities kick off in the afternoon and continue late into the evening, creating a vibrant atmosphere throughout the city’s entertainment district.

Attendees can expect multiple stages featuring live music, DJs, performers, local organizations, interactive experiences, and more than 100 vendors showcasing everything from community resources to food and specialty products. The festival has become a signature event for Greater Fort Lauderdale and a major attraction during Pride Month.

One of the highlights of the evening will be the Glow Night Parade, where illuminated floats, performers, community groups, and local organizations will light up Wilton Drive in a dazzling display of pride and visibility. The nighttime parade has become a fan favorite, drawing spectators from across South Florida.

More than just a celebration, Stonewall Pride serves as a tribute to the historic Stonewall Uprising of 1969, the event widely recognized as a catalyst for the modern LGBTQ+ rights movement. The festival honors that legacy while highlighting the progress, resilience, and continued advocacy of the LGBTQ+ community.

As crowds fill the streets of Wilton Manors today, the event continues to reinforce South Florida’s reputation as one of the country’s most welcoming destinations for LGBTQ+ residents and visitors alike. From families and allies to longtime advocates and first-time attendees, Stonewall Pride offers a place for everyone to come together in celebration.

Whether you’re attending for the parade, the performances, or simply the sense of community, Stonewall Pride remains one of the defining events of Pride Month in South Florida—and today, Wilton Manors is where the celebration shines brightest.
