Dear Vendors,

Thank you for being part of PRIDEfest 2026! We are incredibly grateful that you showed up, set up, and stuck with us despite Mother Nature deciding to throw a tornado warning into the mix.

If it’s any consolation, the forecast completely changed from the day before, and if we had access to weather controls, we promise we’d have ordered sunshine and 75 degrees. Unfortunately, that feature wasn’t included in this year’s budget.

Your support means the world to us, and we’re already excited to welcome you back next year. As we begin planning for 2027, we’ll be making a few changes and improvements, and we’ll be sending out a survey soon so you can share your feedback, ideas, and suggestions.

Thank you again for helping make PRIDEfest possible. We couldn’t do it without you, and we’re looking forward to seeing you again next year—preferably under slightly less dramatic skies.

With gratitude,

The PRIDEfest Committee

🌈To our Pride community, we are so proud of you. Thank you for showing up with us on Saturday and throughout various Pride events this weekend! We are all in this together.

We have a few post event announcements and corrections to make. We received some conflicting information prior to the event and during an emotional battle we were fighting for our vendors and in the heat of the moment (as one does) we publicly called out a business who did not deserve it. We would like to apologize to our fellow ally Margaret’s Jonesboro, LLC and encourage everyone to give her lovely restaurant a try.

We would also like to correct our statement calling our drag brunch event “the only drag brunch in NEA”. Something Art Cafe hosts them regularly, and we can’t wait to attend!!

We sincerely apologize for those mistakes. Please follow both of their pages as we hope to do more collaborating with both restaurants soon!

Thank you all again!!! Whether you vended, donated, were a huge sponsor or simply shared a post. You all make the future more inclusive and we all need each other! 🫶
