Ashtabula Pride 2026 Ohio

Info

Ashtabula Pride takes place on Saturday the 20th June 2026.

Ashtabula Pride, Inc. was founded in June 2023 by Rebekah Beeman and Michael Riffe as a new vision and focus for the county's Pride festival. The first festival was started in 2020 by the late Pastor Bill Daywalt, Pastor John Werner, Librarian A.J. Petro, and Drag Queen Mona Lotz (Riffe), who met weekly to transform Daywalt's plan of a Pride Picnic into a much larger event, a pride festival. In just a few weeks, those four and a select number of volunteers orchestrated the first annual Pride Ashtabula County festival, which was attended by over 3,000 people of all ages and walks of life. Immediately following the festival, the four and their volunteers formed the LGBTQ Coalition of Ashtabula County Inc. which would focus on outreach and education for the county. This year will be the 6th Ashtabula Pride. Ashtabula Pride is committed to providing a family friendly, safe, and inclusive environment where everyone is welcome to come and be Proud to be yourself.
