About Us
Houston is built from millions of voices, stories, and identities, a blend of creativity, culture, resilience, and community that exists nowhere else. Our city thrives on the energy of artists and activists, dreamers and doers, neighbors and chosen family. Together, we create something uniquely powerful: a Houston where everyone belongs and everyone shines.
Pride Houston 365 is proud to elevate that spirit year‑round. Through our events, partnerships, and community programs, we celebrate the people who make this city extraordinary and ensure LGBTQ+ voices in Houston are seen, heard, and uplifted.
We bring our community together to meet challenges and honor our strengths, creating spaces where LGBTQ+ people feel safe and affirmed, uplifting youth, supporting families, and showing up in moments that call for unity, visibility, and collective care.
As a year-round nonprofit, Pride Houston 365 strengthens LGBTQ+ presence across the city by shaping cultural visibility, promoting inclusion and representation, producing large-scale community events, and collaborating with civic and industry partners. This work is grounded in our responsibility for producing Houston’s Pride Festival and Parade, the largest Pride celebration in the South, which brings together hundreds of thousands in a powerful display of unity, joy, and belonging.
OUR duties
We manage all festival and parade logistics, including permitting, talent and vendor coordination, safety planning, accessibility services, and the immersive experiences that make Pride weekend a defining moment for Houston each year.
Beyond Pride weekend, Pride Houston 365 develops programs and partnerships that uplift youth, support families, and foster connection, leadership, and belonging throughout the year. Our work extends into community engagement and collaborations with organizations that share our commitment to equity and inclusion.
A Board of Directors provides governance, sets policy, and approves major initiatives and expenditures, ensuring transparency and accountability in all we do.
Through our events, partnerships, and advocacy, we help ensure Houston remains a city where every identity is valued and every story has a place.
a celebration of love and diversity
Pride Houston 365 is a volunteer-led 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that proudly produces the largest LGBTQ+ festival and parade in Texas.
