The Celebration Continues at Aurora Pride 2024!

We are all healers, lovers, writers, photographers, musicians and even…

If you weren’t able to attend Denver Pride this year, no worries; the celebration continues in Aurora! On August 3, join the City of Aurora for Aurora Pride on the Aurora Reservoir.

The event is sure to bring lots of excitement, resources, and unity to the community. Aurora Pride is the only beachfront pride celebration in the US, so grab your best swim attire and sunscreen to prepare for some water splashing fun—perfect to cool off under the Colorado heat!

Aurora Pride initially started in 2018 with the intention of increasing inclusivity and support for the community. Thanks to collaborations with Out Front Foundation, the City of Aurora and local businesses, Aurora Pride continues to be a staple piece of support for the LGBT+ community.

Focused on creating a safe space, Aurora Pride introduces educational, medical, mental health, and many more resources to the LGBT+ community. In addition to raising money for the event, every year Aurora Pride raises funds to support scholarships for LGBT+ students in Aurora, CO.

Make sure to stick around for amazing shows by talented, head-turning entertainers and musicians all afternoon!

The Aurora Reservoir is ADA accessible, offering beach-friendly wheelchairs upon request and handicapped parking that connects to ADA ramps leading to the main event.

Executive Director Zander Oklar is a proud member of the community and passionate about showing up for others. With 15 years of experience in the hospitality industry, he is able to coordinate meaningful events like Aurora Pride.

“It’s a safe space where people can come and just let loose and be themselves for a day, but then on top of that, we pride ourselves in connecting the community with job opportunities, mental health support, STD testing, information about homelessness and the resources to get out of that situation… Offering narcan and fentanyl testing strips, all those things are super important to us.” Zander commented on Podbean podcast.
