One of Little Rock’s most colorful neighborhoods is about to get even more so.
On Saturday, June 13, the annual SoMa Pride parade and festival will take over South Main Street beginning at 10:30 a.m. The day is dedicated to inclusivity, love, community and empowerment, with proceeds benefiting local LGBTQ+ organizations.
Stretching down South Main Street from 12th to 17th streets, the festival will feature dozens of vendors and food trucks, a full lineup of live music and activities for the whole family. For the grownups, there will also be plenty of local spirits to fuel the fun.
In perhaps the highlight of the day, the festival will break for the parade, which will fill South Main from 22nd to 12th streets with high-energy marchers, performers and floats, all decked out in their rainbow best.
Saturday’s festivities run from 10:30 a.m. – 4 p.m., with the parade taking place at noon. For those looking to start the fun early, don’t miss the Disco, Divas and Distillery pre-party at Rock Town Distillery on Friday night. More on that here.
Neighborhood businesses and organizations are also getting in on the fun, so keep an eye out for themed menus, specials and events at your favorite spots.
