Ready... Set.... BE PROUD! Pride weekend is here! Be sure to keep up to date with all the happenings this weekend! Check out Legends Nightclub Complex page for more information! We will see you there!

🌈✨ Pride Weekend Is ALMOST Here!

We’re getting a lot of questions about cover, entry, and opening times, so here’s everything you need to know before the biggest weekend of the year! 🏳️‍🌈🔥

Friday, doors open at 7 PM. If you’re 21+, get in before 10 PM and your entry is FREE. After 10 PM, cover is $10 for 21+ and $25 for guests ages 18–20.

Saturday, doors also open at 7 PM. Entry is FREE for 21+ before 10 PM. After 10 PM, cover is $15 for 21+ and $30 for guests ages 18–20.

Sunday’s Pride Patio Party kicks off at 4 PM! Entry is FREE all day for 21+, and just $5 for guests ages 18–20.

Don’t forget - we’ll have TWO entrances available all weekend long, with access from both Hargett Street(main entrance) and Harrington Street (old view entrance) to help get everyone inside faster.

Fair warning: if you wait until everyone else decides to show up, you’re probably going to be making new friends in the line. 😘

Get here early, get inside, grab your spot, and enjoy the party. Pride Weekend only comes once a year, but waiting until 11 PM to arrive is a choice. 🌈💀

Get ready for an unforgettable Pride Weekend at Legends! 🌈❤️

🌈 PRIDE SATURDAY IS ALMOST HERE! 🌈

The Crape Myrtle Festival is hitting the road and we'll be celebrating at not one, but TWO incredible Pride events on Saturday, June 27th!

✨ Out! Raleigh Pride
✨ Fayetteville Pride

Whether you're in the Triangle or down in Fayetteville, we hope you'll stop by our booth, say hello, learn more about the work we do throughout the year, and help us continue making a difference in our community.

As a volunteer-run 501(c)(3) nonprofit, every event, fundraiser, and donation helps us support organizations serving the LGBTQIA+ community and those affected by HIV/AIDS across North Carolina. ❤️

We'll have information about our upcoming events, ways to get involved with Court 47, and opportunities to support our mission. Most importantly, we'd love the chance to celebrate Pride with YOU!

🏳️‍🌈 Come visit us, snap a photo, share a hug, and help us spread love, acceptance, and community all across North Carolina.

See you at Pride!

As we gather throughout Pride Month to celebrate love, community, visibility, and the progress we have made together, we also pause today to remember a tragedy that forever changed our community.

Ten years ago today, on June 12, 2016, 49 beautiful lives were taken and 53 others were injured during the horrific shooting at Pulse Nightclub in Orlando, Florida. What was meant to be a night of joy, music, friendship, and belonging became one of the darkest days in LGBTQIA+ history.

Today, we honor the memories of those we lost. We remember their names, their stories, their dreams, and the love they brought into the world. We stand with the survivors, the families, and all those whose lives were forever impacted by that night.

Pride has always been about more than celebration. It is about resilience. It is about community. It is about refusing to let hate diminish our light.

As we continue celebrating Pride this month, let us do so with gratitude for those who came before us, compassion for one another, and a renewed commitment to creating a world where everyone can live authentically and safely.

Today, we remember the 49.
Today, we honor the survivors.
Today, we choose love.
