Lehigh Valley Pride is a celebration of arts, culture, and community. We are thrilled to celebrate Pride in person again at the grounds of the Jewish Community Center of Allentown. We acknowledge that we are celebrating Pride on the original and unceded land of the Lenape people.

Lehigh Valley Pride aims to be an inclusive event for people with disabilities. Accessibility features this year include ASL interpretation all day at the Tito’s Handmade Vodka Stage, and at the pre-Pride faith service. We also have a sober social space with games and activities for anyone to enjoy, but that is intentionally safe for those in recovery.
We have an exciting schedule of activities planned for our community, enjoy and happy Pride!
Welcome to Lehigh Valley Pride 2021! #YouAreIncluded is our theme this year, which is what our festival has always been about -- inclusion, equity, and celebrating our culture with our community and allies!
Our entire staff has done atremendous job to make this festival happen with only 10 weeks of planning!
We hope you enjoy the festivities and entertainment of the day, from drag race superstars, music, food, and numerous vendors!

and Glastonbury. Erin has released
10 albums and written for film, TV,
and theater.
Crys Matthews (she/her) is a folk
singer-songwriter who’s been hailed
as “the next Woody Guthrie.” Crys
calls herself “the poster child for
intersectionality” and incorporates
social justice and her lived
experiences in her songs. The DC
resident released her new album
Changemakers this year, tackling
issues that include Black Lives
Matter, gun safety, immigration, and
the opioid crisis.
Ariel Versace (she/her) is the
self-proclaimed “life-size Bratz doll”
from New Jersey, who competed on
RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 11. The
drag performer and recording artist

Chariel,” a wig company, with her
partner and fellow drag queen
Chasity St. Cartier. Ariel headlines the
official Lehigh Valley Pride After
Party.
Kylie Sonique Love (she/her) is a
trailblazing trans icon, drag
entertainer, actress, and recording
