Pride Fort Lauderdale is hosting a FLoatarama boat eventĪ flotilla of boats decorated with LGBTQ+ themes will ride on the New River from the Stranahan House ending with a raft-up in Sunrise Bay. Here is a listing of some of the major events: Last year, Pride events were canceled or postponed across South Florida and the rest of the country because of the coronavirus pandemic, but the celebrations are slowly returning this year. The Stonewall uprising in New York City helped sparked the modern gay rights movement. The original organizers chose June for Pride Month to commemorate the Stonewall riots, which took place at the end of June 1969.

Pride events are geared toward anyone who feels like their sexual identity falls outside the mainstream. Pride gatherings have always been a celebration of acceptance, of resilience and of bringing people together. June is Pride Month, when the world’s LGBT communities come together and celebrate the freedom to be themselves.
