Wellington Pride Festival

Wellington Pride Festival

Wellington Pride Festival is the longest-running annual Pride celebration in Aotearoa.

Wellington

Wellington Pride Festival is an ever-growing annual Festival celebrating our rainbow whānau in Te Whanganui-ā-Tara. Our largest event, Out in the City, is a fair which attracts thousands from across Aotearoa and beyond.

We are an entirely volunteer-led and run organisation. Your donations will cover some of the many, many costs of running this event.

What started as a day and grew to a weekend is now two full weeks of rainbow events made by and for the LGBTQIA*/MVPFAFF+ community. Our guiding document Te Whāriki sets our strategic priorities for the future: a more inclusive and Te Tiriti o Waitangi-centred Pride Festival.

The dates for 2026 are 6-22 March, and the theme is “Honouring the past, building for the future and celebrating the now”. Join us!
