PRIDE IN THE PARK: SUMMERFEST 2026

This year marks the 30th anniversary of tri-Pride; a milestone rooted in resilience, advocacy, and community care across Kitchener, Waterloo, and Cambridge. Our 2026 theme, THE LIGHT IS COMING, emerges in response to a time that has been marked by grief, uncertainty, and renewed challenges for 2SLGBTQIA+ communities both locally and globally.
