The Collingwood Pride Festival 2026 returns to Southern Georgian Bay from July 10–12, 2026, bringing a vibrant weekend of celebrations, entertainment, community events, and unforgettable experiences to the heart of downtown Collingwood. Hosted by the local 2SLGBTQ+ community and supporters, the festival welcomes everyone to celebrate diversity, inclusion, and community spirit.
This year’s festival features an exciting lineup of events including the popular Dykes and Bikes ride, the Pride Tea Dance & BBQ, the lively Frigays party, the energetic Haus Party, and the always popular Pride Drag Brunch at Prime7nine. Throughout the weekend, visitors can enjoy live entertainment, local businesses, community programming, and celebrations happening throughout downtown Collingwood.
One of the highlights of the weekend is the 5th Annual Collingwood Pride Parade, taking place on Saturday, July 11 from 5:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. The parade brings together local businesses, organizations, and community groups in a colourful celebration of pride, visibility, and inclusion through the streets of downtown Collingwood.
Festival celebrations officially begin with the Flag Raising Ceremony outside the Collingwood Public Library, followed by an evening of live performances, drag entertainment, food trucks, a beverage garden, fashion shows, DJs, and local talent on Simcoe Street. Festival grounds are free to attend and offer something for all ages throughout the weekend.
Whether you’re a local resident, weekend visitor, or exploring everything Southern Georgian Bay has to offer this summer, Collingwood Pride is an opportunity to celebrate community, connection, and inclusion in one of Ontario’s most beautiful four-season destinations.
