"Building a Better Future for our LBGTQ+ Community"

Fort Dodge Pride Festival is an organization established out of a need to build a better community for LBGTQ+ people in Fort Dodge, the education systems, and the surrounding area. We are committed to building relationships within the community, by building bridges with people in the community and other groups in our area. We are committed to maintaining a community that recognizes and values the inherent worth and dignity of every person regardless of sexual identity, gender identity or race, that fosters mutual respect among its directors and volunteers, and encourages each individual to reach their own potential by building momentum for the equitable treatment of people. We are a community of volunteers who identify as gay, le***an, bisexual, pansexual, transgender, q***r, asexual, aromantic, or other non-heterosexual, non-cisgender identies, as well as heterosexual and cisgender allies. We strive to do work that promotes community building among LGBTQIA+ people, to educate the community on issues affecting LGBTQIA+ people, and to facilitate an environment that values the intersectional identities of all people living in and around the City of Fort Dodge, IA.

What an incredible day! 🏳️‍🌈❤️

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone who attended our 5th Annual Pride Fest. Because of your support, energy, and enthusiasm, this year's festival was a tremendous success!

A special thank you to River Hops Brewing for hosting our amazing musical performances throughout the day and our unforgettable Drag After Party. Thank you to Xander Lyon Frost for keeping the energy high all day as our fantastic MC. Thank you to all of the amazing Queens and Kings who performed.

We're also incredibly grateful to every one of our vendors, sponsors, volunteers, and Board of Directors who dedicated their time and effort to making this event possible. A huge thank you to The Better Way Project for allowing us to use their green space and helping us create a welcoming place for our community to gather.

Events like this simply don't happen without the support of so many amazing people. Thank you for believing in our mission and helping us celebrate love, inclusion, and community.

We can't wait to do it all again. We'll see you next year for Pride Fest 2027! 🌈🎉
