 Reno Gay Pride Festival & Parade
Join the fun at Reno's Twelfth Annual Gay Pride Celebration to be held in Wingfield Park on Saturday August 16, 2008.
Reno Gay Pride has grown bigger with each passing year and honors the diversity of the GLBT Community.
Thousands of visitors, families, friends and the Northern Nevada community look forward to festivities, always held each year during the third weekend in August.
Reno Gay Pride celebrates 12 years of making positive changes in the inclusive spirit of showcasing diversity and community spirit with our annual parade. Our parade benefits family members within the community by giving every individual the opportunity to be out and proud helping to build self esteem, leaving no one out.
Stay where the action is at our Host Hotel  - just a two block stroll along the Truckee River  to the festival grounds. The parade kicks off at 11:00 am on Saturday morning at Fourth & Arlington (Sands Regency Casino Hotel) and will continue to the Festival grounds at Wingfield Park.
Under cool shade trees in Wingfield Park, along the Truckee River, guests will enjoy a full day of live performances and entertainment on the amphitheater stage.
Enjoy a wonderful day of shopping with our unique vendors... strolling through the beer garden... and sampling a variety of foods with friends and loved ones.
All Day Festival Access and Entertainment Ticket - $5.00 ( Children admitted free when accompanied by an adult ).

Wine Walk During Gay Pride
|
Join in on the fun any time from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. during Reno Gay Pride when the Riverwalk Merchants Association hosts the popular Wine Walk along the Truckee River and neighboring streets in downtown Reno.
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS:
Visit any Riverwalk District merchant during Gay Pride to get a map of participating Wine Walk merchants. Go to the participating merchant of your choice, and, for a $20 wine-tasting fee and valid photo ID, you’ll receive a wine glass and an ID bracelet that allows you to sample wine at any participating merchant.
Proceeds benifit PFLAG - Parents, Families & Friends of Lesbians & Gays (PFLAG).
Parents, families and friends of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender persons, celebrate diversity and envision a society that embraces everyone, including those of diverse sexual orientations and gender identities. Only with respect, dignity and equality for all will we reach our full potential as human beings, individually and collectively. PFLAG welcomes the participation and support of all who share in, and hope to realize this vision.
