Tonight! 🏳️‍🌈

Join UP and partners in Downtown Champaign on Saturday, June 20th for a special Pride Edition of the Taylor Street Block Party!

We’re transforming Taylor Street into a colorful celebration of music, community, self-expression, and joy, all under the summer sky.

The night features live performances from Joanna Sterling, Iris Marlowe, Pinksqueeze, and Thelma and the Sleaze leading up to one of the Midwest’s largest annual drag shows featuring Karma Knightly, Ceduxion Carrington, Buck Sallday, Xavi Cado, and Daeshaun Carrington.

After the drag show, keep the energy going with DJ Silkee’s Party Under the Stars, a late-night street dance party right in the heart of downtown. Come dance in the street, celebrate Pride, and experience one of Champaign’s most vibrant nights of the summer.

We have very exciting news! Uniting Pride is moving to Lincoln Square Mall!

After many wonderful years at the University YMCA, UP has outgrown our current space and will be moving into a bigger office in Lincoln Square Mall.

UP will be in its current office space at the University YMCA until the end of June. We will be available in our new office starting July 6th.

Keep an eye on our social media for any changes to our hours/resource availability in the coming weeks.
