More Than a Party
Buffalo Pride Week is a joyous commemoration of LGBTQ+ history and culture and an annual display of the strengthening power of open-arms diversity. It is an opportunity for our community, friends and chosen families to join together and affirm our message of love, inclusivity and unity.
Our Mission
Buffalo Pride Week strives to uplift the LGBTQ+ community by raising awareness for and providing access to diverse events that bring people together in the spirit of celebration, advocacy and engagement.
In line with that mission, and in response to tremendous growth Buffalo Pride Week has experienced in recent years, we offer this website to the community as a platform for promoting all Pride Week events and celebrations hosted by allied groups across the region. It is our hope that in providing the website as a public marketing tool, we will encourage more -and increasingly diverse- organizations, groups and businesses from around Western New York to participate in and contribute to the success and strength of Pride Week, helping us to reach broader audiences in the process.
Learn more about posting your Pride Week event to our community calendar.

It Takes a Community
Pride Week wouldn’t be possible without the generous support of local businesses and organizations. Sponsorships, donations and proceeds from the Pride Festival and Parade support Buffalo Pride Week, as well as the mission and programs of the Pride Center of WNY. Thank you to our sponsors, big and small.
