About Us

The Halifax Pride Society leads planning of the Halifax Pride Festival, an 11 day annual gathering by and for the 2SLGBTQ+ community in the Halifax Regional Municipality. The festival features over 100 community and Pride organized events celebrating the history, culture, activism, and perseverance of the queer community. While the Halifax Pride Society organizes a number of large and small scale events, we engage actively with various queer groups and individuals throughout the year to support them in the planning of their own events and activities. Our aim is to contribute to an equitable society free from all forms of oppression. Our purpose is to create spaces for persons of diverse sexual and gender identities to come together and flourish.
