Join us for the 5th annual Holyoke PrideFEST — a day of joy, music, art, and community celebration in the heart of The Paper City! What began as a one-day block party has grown into a citywide movement of love and visibility, honoring the strength, creativity, and resilience of Holyoke’s LGBTQIA+ community and our allies across Western Mass.

This year, we’re thrilled to welcome Massachusetts drag performer Joslyn Fox as our headlining entertainer, bringing her signature humor, charm, and “Keep it Foxy” energy to Downtown Holyoke. Expect an unforgettable afternoon of live performances, drag, dancing, local food, family fun, and pure queer magic under the summer sky.

This year marks our biggest PrideFEST yet — and we can’t wait to celebrate YOU. Whether you’re coming to perform, vend, volunteer, or simply be loud and proud, everyone is welcome at Holyoke PrideFEST 2026!

Stay tuned for announcements about our full lineup, special guests, and all the colorful surprises we have in store.
