Reading Pride Parade and Celebration Returns June 6

Community Invited to Volunteer, Sign Support Letter, and Join Pride Sign-Making Party Ahead of Annual Event

Reading, MA — It’s time to mark your calendars for the 6th annual Reading Pride Parade and Celebration, scheduled for Saturday, June 6. With DJ Jazzy Jacob, games, and a bubble show, this is an exciting event for residents of all ages. 

Hosted by Reading’s POP Huddle and made possible with a grant from the Reading Cultural Council, the event kicks off at 3:00 p.m. on the Town Common. We can’t do it alone, though—we need you to make it bigger and better than ever!

  •  Sign the Statement of Support for Pride letter! We hope to collect hundreds of signatures of Reading individuals, families, businesses, clubs, and organizations that support Pride. We’ll use the names to create a rainbow chain and support signs that will decorate the Common on the day of our event. 
  •  Volunteer using this form! Whether you help prepare before the event or on the day, there are so many ways to get involved.
  • Attend our Pride Sign Making Party! On May 21, from 7:00-8:45 p.m., downstairs at the Reading Public Library, we will make a rainbow chain and support signs to decorate for our event. No artistic skills or materials needed. 

Event organizer Laura Wilson said, “This event is a great opportunity for Reading to show our support and care for our LGBTQ+ neighbors and families. Come join the fun!”
