Be Proud Fest
Be Proud Fest 2025 returns as a citywide celebration of LGBTQ+ pride, and community in Long Beach. This year’s festival expands beyond gates into shops, streets, bike paths, bars, and beaches. Events include a Light-Up Bike Protest on Friday from Rosie’s Dog Beach to Marina Green, Be Proud in the Neighborhood on Saturday with performances, DJs, art, and community programming across local businesses, and a beach takeover at the Rainbow Lifeguard Tower on Sunday with music, dancing, and celebration. All events are free, with shuttles and party buses connecting venues.
