Out and Proud Grays Harbor Coalition is super excited to present our 10th amazing Pride Festival! We hope that you will join us in person, as we welcome you aboard The Love Boat!

Grays Harbor Pride kicks off on Friday, September 22 with a free/pay what you can all ages dance, Pride Prom 2023, at Events on Emerson in Hoquiam.

On Saturday, September 23, Grays Harbor Pride Festival starts at 1 pm at the Historical Seaport with free, family friendly activities, vendors, music, and entertainment.

This year, we will be hosting a concert by an iconic multi-platinum artist, Mary Lambert. That’s right! Mary Lambert will be putting on a free show at Grays Harbor Pride 2023! Everyone will be talking about this. Bring a chair!

At 7:00 pm, stay for the free nighttime Drag Show event, hosted by Seattle’s Premier Drag King, Ceasar Heart! Amazing performers come from all over Washington to support our local LGBTQIA+ community. You won’t want to miss this!

Mary Lambert will be performing live!!

We are beyond excited to announce that in honor of the 10th annual Grays Harbor Pride, PNW legend, advocate, and amazing multi-platinum artist Mary Lambert will be performing live at Grays Harbor Pride Festival 2023 on September 23 at Grays Harbor Historical Seaport in Aberdeen!!

We’re not crying. You’re crying.

Of course, Mary Lambert is most known for singing and writing “Same Love” but she is so much more than that. She sings, writes poems, writes books, dances, coaches, co-hosts a podcast, and stars in the new Netflix animated musical Arlo the Alligator Boy and the new series I ❤ Arlo! She is an amazing advocate in how we talk about fat bodies and how we view health. Her most recent full length album is Grief Creature. Keep up with Mary on Instagram.

You may remember that Mary recorded a special message for our 2020 Virtual Pride event and we are excited to welcome her back to Washington for an in person performance! She is already planning how she will celebrate Pride with us and we can’t wait!

One major reason why we can do this is we are getting support from some Fabulously Gay! sponsors like Grays Harbor County Tourism, the City of Aberdeen, Grays Harbor Historical Seaport, MetMeds Pharmacy, and Events on Emerson. We know that our sponsors and vendors are eager to join in and get us the rest of the way there. The vendor/sponsor form is now live and can be accessed at http://www.ghpride.love/vendors-sponsors. We know that you will be joining us and would love to share your support!
