STEVENS POINT - Organizers of the city s LGBTQ Pride celebration are not short on ambition.
Stevens Point s Pride festival returns from noon to 9 p.m. on June 12 at Pffifner Pioneer Park after a physical hiatus caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Organized by Point Pride, a group sponsored by CREATE Portage County, this year s event will be double in length and size than the last celebration in 2019.
June is LGBTQ Pride month, which originated as protests led by Black transgender women, in response to a 1969 violent police raid of New York s Stonewall Inn, a popular gay bar.
Headlining the event are drag performers Sissy LaLa and Bryanna Banx$ as well musical performances from groups such as Falling Flat. Other performers include Croi Croga Aerial Arts. The event will feature alcohol, food trucks and a local vendor and artisan market.
