The Reading Pride LGBTQ+ Pride festival is the oldest and largest festival of its kind in the area celebrating its 17th anniversary this year and continuing to grow. Last year's festival was the largest ever, with over 5,000 attendees, 150 vendors, 15 food trucks, and 30 performers, and this year will be even larger. The 2023 festival will feature two stages, a Pride Kids Area, a Teen Space, a Sober Space, and much more. This festival is not one to be missed. Vendor applications go live on January 1st, 2023. Sponsors, vendors, and entertainers interested in performing are encouraged to complete the applications early. There are many sponsorship opportunities, but if you don't see one that suits your needs, please feel free to reach out. We will be pleased to discuss options. Vendors are encouraged to take a look at our Berks LGBTQ+ Alliance site, and consider membership as members receive discounted vendor fees. .
