The story

Long Island Pride in Huntington

Long Island Pride brings a parade and festival to Huntington village each June, drawing LGBTQ+ residents and allies from across Nassau and Suffolk counties. The event pairs a street parade with a festival of vendor booths, community organization tables, live entertainment, and family-friendly programming in and around the village center.

It gives Long Island a clear Pride festival row with official organizer identity.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

As one of the longest-running LGBTQ+ pride events on Long Island, the festival serves a geographically spread-out community that lacks a single dense urban gathering point the way Manhattan does, making Huntington's walkable downtown a rare shared space for the region's pride celebrations

02

The mystery stays covered

Local elected officials, businesses, and youth services organizations participate alongside the parade, giving the event a civic weight beyond the party atmosphere
