This year, we're taking it to 4th Street! During the fourth annual event, enjoy food and beverages from your favorite 4th Street businesses, and live music! Support our local Queer artists and downtown businesses.
Presented by the Austin LGBT Chamber of Commerce along with KUTX and local 4th Street businesses (Austin’s unofficial LGBTQ+ district) this dynamic music festival will be a block party with a full street closure to close out National Pride Month and celebrate local music through the vibrant diversity of the Live Music Capital of the World. It all benefits the Austin LGBT Chamber Education Fund, which provides scholarships to LGBTQ+ and allied students who exhibit strong potential in leadership, academic ability and involvement in their communities.
