Get ready to celebrate Pride Month 2024 in style! Theme parks across the globe are gearing up for a series of vibrant and inclusive events that promise unforgettable experiences. From Disney magic to Six Flags thrills, there’s a colorful celebration waiting just around the corner.
Starting across the pond at Disneyland Paris, mark your calendar for June 29, 2024. Join Mickey and friends as they ride a spectacular parade float, donning stunning Pride attire throughout the day. These all-day celebrations replace previous years’ after-hours Magical Pride event, keeping the festivities right in the heart of the park.
Back in the U.S., Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California, is hosting the second annual Disneyland After Dark: Pride Nite on June 18 & 20, 2024. This event has already sold out, promising guests a night full of Pride fireworks, energetic dance parties, and exclusive character greetings. While enjoying the merriment, fans can also shop the latest Disney Pride Collection merchandise, from adorable Mickey Mouse Pride Loungefly mini-backpacks to rainbow-themed Stitch plush toys.
Meanwhile, Six Flags theme parks across the country are not holding back. Six Flags Great America in Gurnee, Illinois, is kicking off the month with its Pride Celebration on June 1-2, 2024, featuring music, parades, and fun photo ops. Six Flags Over Georgia near Atlanta stands out, dedicating the entire month of June to Pride alongside its Summer Vibes Festival. This event showcases park-wide décor, unique entertainment, and a philanthropic spirit, with 15% of merchandise sales supporting local LGBTQIA+ organizations.
Universal Studios is also making waves, emphasizing its year-round support through the Love Is Universal collection. Universal Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood are rolling out new merchandise with all profits from June through August 2024 going to local LGBTQIA+ non-profits. Universal Studios Hollywood takes it a step further by partnering with LA Pride for their after-hours bash, Pride is Universal, and an inclusive Pride Prom on June 15, 2024.
