Old Town is throwing down like never before with a two-day Pride Block Party that will set the city ablaze with color, music, love, and pure community joy. Taking over the streets, this all-out celebration transforms Old Town and downtown Portland into the heart of Pride.

This isn’t just another Pride event — it’s a full-on takeover. Streets will be closed to cars and opened to celebration, filled with live entertainment, local drag performances, DJs, community vendors, art installations, food trucks, and more. Whether you’re dancing in the streets, reconnecting with community, supporting queer-owned businesses, or soaking in the electric energy of the neighborhood, this weekend is for you.

The Old Town Pride Block Party isn’t just about the party — it’s about honoring the spirit of Pride and uplifting Old Town as a cultural cornerstone of downtown Portland. This event celebrates the LGBTQIA2S+ community while also showcasing the resilience, vibrancy, and creativity of the neighborhood and the people who make it shine.

Come as you are, bring your crew, and celebrate what makes Portland bold, beautiful, and proud. Don’t miss this weekend of unstoppable joy, radical love, and unforgettable moments. Old Town is ready — are you?
