Downtown Akron is about to light up with color and energy as the Akron Pride Festival returns to Lock 3 this month! This year’s festival isn’t just about the parade and celebration—it’s also bringing national headliners like David Archuleta and stars from “RuPaul’s Drag Race” to the stage. Whether you’re running the 5K, marching for equity, or just soaking up the music and food trucks, there’s something for everyone. Free admission means anyone can join the fun. Who’s planning to check out the performances or bring the family to the interactive kids’ area? Let’s talk plans and favorite Pride moments! #Culture #AkronPride #Lock3
